Plus you get to watch the planes fly by! I sat for an hour and watched boats sail along the ocean. Then my boyfriend and I walked around for a little while. He showed me this park as it was his favorite growing up, so I loved being able to come here with him. Free parking lot and street parking as well. Plus, close to public transportation.

This is a great place to take kids and dogs and old people, grouped in that order. There is a large grassy area to frolic in, tennis courts, I believe there might be basketball and a small playground. There is a secret area which I do not wish to disclose (just look toward the trees!) but if you are adventurous you will certainly find it. If you decide on that 2 min adventure, you will feel secluded until you hear the roaring of Jet Blue passing by, and you will see that there are many private spots to sit with your hot date and a picnic either watching the harbor or the airport. I recommend the airport side as it is very interesting. Oh and you might feel like you are going to get hit by a plane, but you won't. I hope! Oh and my favorite thing there is the cedar tree!! Stand under it when it is really windy, it sounds so neat! Also, on your way to the park on Bay View, please pay attention to the house on your left with the monkeys and palm trees. Then you can cry your way back to your car because you don't live here, but you should for this very reason. Its one of the good parks of the Throp!

So we parked in the connected lot which was super convenient... The city was serving lunch as we got there & we were offered, but we did not parktake in it... I think its a great idea to give the kids free lunch during the summer. The park was packed & I think it might have been because it was lunch time and being that they do offer free lunch... All the Treehouse like structure thingys are all a little too big for my 2 year old...He did climb one once with the assistance of the 12 year old that was with us... None of the structures had stairs to climb up (just one little section), most of the methods of climbing up were ladders or chains, and that just doesnt work for my little one... If he was a bit older this would be a perfect park, and possibly if we came at a different time or maybe after summer. Because it was PACKED! We only stayed a short time!

Several parking spots and nearby porta-johns on this paved and scenic trail around Deer Island, the…read moreonly Harbor Island accessible without a boat. There are no deer really but you might see coyotes so keep your dogs leashed. It is also not a foresty island, it is mostly made up of the wastewater treatment plant at the center, with this 2.6 mile loop trail around the perimeter. That does not take away from the views of the islands and the city skyline. There is a beautiful Celtic cross memorial up a small hill on the trail, that looks out to Boston and commemorates many Irish immigrants who perished and were buried in unmarked graves, as were many Native Americans here. There is a fishing pier and a rock wall walkway. No real facilities or food, so bring your picnic. There are many benches to sit on, and the flat rock wall itself. The walk from the Deer Island parking lot to the Celtic cross is about 12 minutes, depending on your pace. Watch the planes line up to make their meticulous touchdown on Logan's 2-foot landing strip. :) It is a pleasant and reflective stroll and you can do as much or as little as you wish.

They take such great care of it and it's a nice spot to take a break. Throughout the year, they hold various events at this park. My favorite is when Santa comes to town in his red helicopter. They also have a very cute "Tunnel of Love" during February. This park is very dog friendly and there are bathrooms nearby too - just right at the Marriott hotel. They have some outside or if you prefer, you can go inside the Marriott and go up the escalator. FYI, right now the escalator is out of order, but you can take the elevator up to the UL. Oh, and they have a Starbucks right inside too. Next time you're in the area, check the park out for yourselves.

From here you can see the skyline of Boston and it just looks so perfect and beautiful!!! Visit it during sunset and you are lost for words! It's just so incredible and a romantic place. During the summer the city also offers free zumba classes here. I went to a few classes, I believe they were on Wednesday nights at 6 for a few weeks. The class was so much fun, and the teacher was awesome! She really engaged the students include all genders and ages. This place also holds a special meaning in my heart as it was the place my finance proposed to me! I can't imagine a more perfect place that he could have chosen.
