Sandy Swimming Hole — photo spot in 550 N Shepherd Rd, Washougal, WA 98671, USA
Sandy Swimming Hole
Score4.2Small sandy river swimming hole with clear riffles, exposed rock ledges and fir-lined banks — great for intimate waterscape shots, portraits with natural backdrops, and slow‑shutter silky water. Best visited in summer for low flows and warm light; golden hour brings warm side-light on sand and trees. Accessible from a short roadside walk with limited parking; no entry fee but expect picnickers and swimmers on weekends. Avoid high spring flows for safety.
