Covering an area of 19.8 sq. km, Lake Sammamish spans from the city of Issaquah in the south to Redmond in the north. Placed to the west of the Sammamish Plateau and the east of Lake Washington, the lake has a length of 11.7 km and a maximum width of 2.4 km. Lake Sammamish has an average depth of 18 m and reaches a maximum depth of 32 m.
