So far, we have only been here twice, Labor Day 2023 and 2024 after moving to MA in 2023. We wish…read morewe didn't live 40 minutes away by car. We would be here much more often! Since our only times here have been on probably the busiest day of the year, please take that into consideration with my review. The not so great: Parking is a bit tight, but not impossible if you got a bit of patience. There are no public restrooms, this year (2024) there didn't seem to be any bins for dog poop or trash, there is only one water station at the front. The good: With the exception of one family not checking their dog's resource guarding, every other dog we saw was so well behaved with responsible owners. Between the beach, the walking path, and the hill, there's so much opportunity to run out your pup! While we were a bit bummed that high tide took away the ability to walk the entirety of the peninsula on the beach, the water was clearer than it is during low tide, so we'd definitely recommend a high tide visit. After a little over an hour there, our German Shepherds were completely wiped out and even after the 40-minute ride home where they napped, they were still conked until dinner time.

Best dog park ever! And with a tiny beach where dogs are allowed all time! My pup loves this place!…read moreThe water looks dirty, but he doesn't mind and had a great swim. The hills and greens on the island is huge and there are so many dogs on the weekend! My dog had a blast playing with other dogs and running up and down hills chasing balls! Best play to tire out a dog while give him a good time!

Super beautiful great place to go on a walk, run, jog, or to go cycling. There are always people…read morewalking their dog so even if it is a little chilly outside, you will see people enjoying the views. The park is quite long, it starts in Quincy/Dorcester area, goes through Milton, and I believe ends in Mattapan (Since it is a long path, I have not quite walked/cycled the whole way). On warmer days, there are more people out and about, but it doesn't feel crammed at all. Pros: - View of the water & the city depending on where you start - A few places to park your car (I normally park on the Dorcester side and have yet to see the lot completely full) - There are a few athletic fields so could be a great place to play some ball Cons: - There is almost always dog poop in the grassy area so be careful about where you step & if you are considering a picnic I would carefully inspect the floor before laying claim to a piece of grass.

But after going today with my (almost) 2 Y.O., I realized its not really suitable for a toddler thats just learning how to maneuver the Slides & climbing things... The ground was that rubbery surface, but if he fell he was going to hurt himself & the slides are really high & he has no concept of slow down or be careful... So it is a beautiful place for walks or flying a kite, but the playground is for older kids... Other than that a great place to visit!

Be careful when putting the address into your navigation, especially Waze users, as it took us to the totally wrong location at first. Once you arrive, however, parking is pretty straightforward. It costs $10/car. The staff at the hut where you pay for parking was super helpful in letting us know what route would best suit our time constraints. We were even given a map! The trails were pretty clear, some maybe weren't as clearly defined as they could've been. Note for hikers: this does feel like more a stroll in the park as opposed to a true hike. Some hidden paths did feel like one, however, so don't be afraid to venture off what seems to be the most defined routes. We loved the views of the Boston skyline, harbour, and Hull, MA. This place is definitely worth a visit. I'm looking forward to coming back in autumn to see some good foliage!

Mirroring what others have said, you have to walk around the initial large dog park to get to the small - this typically involves some big ones lumbering over and following you down the fence as they eye your little nugget lol. I liked that there were multiple benches for owners to sit on as well as tires, pipes and rocks for the dogs to play around. Not sure about the large park, but the small park has a water faucet to keep your pups refreshed - just bring a portable bowl. Plenty of parking spots at the entrance if you drive over. Do bring mosquito repellant as they ate ravenous after a big rain.

Great ocean views and a couple nice overlook areas with one picnic bench mid way through the trail. No dogs allowed during peak summer season and signs are posted. The trails are mostly packed sand with a good amount of leaf accumulation making it a bit slippery on the wet day we visited.

It can be busy on weekends though and hence less serene. If you have a dog, bring him! It's a dog friendly place but Fido must be leashed. There are other local dog parks if you want your dog to run free with his friends. This isn't that place. The view along the water is lovely and I've heard that you can go in the water as well as fish. There are about 6 miles or so of terrain to cover. Not a lot but just enough to work up a sweat and burn off some of the pandemic poundage we've gained. This park has been one in a rotation of outdoor spaces where my husband and I are spending free time as a way to get some fresh air and exercise. No permits, no fees! Just show up! Keep yourself moving. Eat less, walk more.

I haven't been to this park yet, but I just read a review about off leash dogs…read more DOGS ARE ALLOWED OFF LEASH HERE WITH A PERMIT FROM THE TOWN OF HINGHAM. If you want to allow your dog off leash, Hingham will provide you with a permit. Its free to apply and they just need proof of vaccines and a homeowners' policy. It's a very quick process. I applied for mine and it was approved within 1 day. I just haven't picked it up yet. I don't plan on walking here off leash too much, but will let my dog off leash if its a quiet morning. To apply: https://www.hingham-ma.gov/791/Off-Leash-Dog-Walking-Permit

The…read moreonly thing why I cannot give this dog park a 5-star review is because I wish it has a water fountain in the park. Sometimes I forget to take a water bottle for my dog and if nobody brings water, dogs are thirsty. In other dog parks that I have been to there were fountains for dogs. It was in Florida tho. Overall, this place is good. During the winter, the ground becomes super slippery like on the skating rink. After the rain, it is kind of dirty in there. My dog looks like a pig. But those are weather conditions and it does not relate to my review. It is just a sharing of the experience that people can be prepared for it.

It's got plenty of free parking, small park for the kiddos, a viewing area for the marsh, beach side is small but nice for picnic and swim. Plenty of geese and ducks that leave their natural presents all over the beach haha but that's nature. It's def a chill spot, i normally only ever went there as a meeting point when we are riding our motorbikes and meeting up with other friends. There are porta-potty bathrooms available between the beach and the kids park. Looks to be area for food vendors but don't know if it's going to open for the summer or not haha.
