Sand Point is a peninsula that juts into Lake Washington from north Seattle, Washington, United States. It is occupied mostly by Magnuson Park and is the namesake of the Sand Point neighborhood to the west of the peninsula. Formerly a U.S. naval air station, it now consists primarily of public park area, but a portion is occupied by a NOAA research center.[1][2]
