People's Park (Latah Creek Beach)
It's basically a woodsy area just west of downtown Spokane. I have been going there for almost nine years and I don't think it has changed much. The river can be a great place to cool off when it's really hot. It's also a great place to wash off your

The guide
Where exactly
West from downtown Spokane on Riverside Ave for about 3/4 mile. At bottom of the long hill, near where Riverside intersects Clark, you will see some concrete road barriers & the Spokane River curving to right. Hike about 1/4 mile beneath the bluffs where Hangman Creek meets the Spokane River until you reach the parking lot (or you can also simply take bus #10 to the parking lot). The nude beach runs along Latah Creek at its intersection with the Spokane River.
Cruisiest spot: I guess the best spots are on the west end near the Latah Creek. Walk towards the river & you will see the many places where guys go to and .
When to go
Anytime during daylight hours. Caution at night the homeless take over and it ca Best times: Whenever the weather is warm. SPRING: (before school gets out) between Noon & Dusk. FALL: (after school starts back up) between Noon & Dusk. SUMMER: Before Noon & about an hour before dusk. If you linger after dusk, cruise the beaches and avoid the bushes as homeless tend to move in for the night so, go to your car, a house or somewhere else to have after dark to avoid trouble. During the summer, it's still cruisy between noon and dusk but, you have to be extra careful due to the families and dog runners. Be prepared to dress quickly and try to position yourself to be able to see the general public approaching and don't get so involved in what you're doing that you don't notice someone coming upon you. WINTER: Go on nice days when it's sunny and the cold is tolerable. Dates open: Anytime during daylight hours. Caution at night the homeless take over and it ca

Etiquette
I like to wear shorts and usually no shirt and sneakers. I also carry only my keys with me. Be patient and something always cums along. On hot days maybe some suntan lotion and a water bottle. Be friendly.
Nudity: Yes / There is a nude beach nearby so you sometimes will see guys naked.
Safety
Occasionally somebody will bring their family through thinking it's some kind of family park, and guys who bring their dogs. I would not go there at night because the homeless think of it as their home and can get very mean.
