Best place to get a good and clear view of Boston skyline. Its beautiful and just 20 minutes walk from Quincy market. We took a bike from quincy market and rode here on a very fine sunny day. It was beautiful.

Beautiful place to walk. Felt safe during the daytime. Best thing I did all day was to grab a coffee from Starbucks and enjoy the view. Really nice place to go for pictures or long talks and enjoy lunch. It will be good to unwind after A day or shopping in the area. Some really good bars and restaurants in walking distance.

Amazing view of Boston from this place. Great for hanging out with family and friends. It’s fully developed now and has a great walking area !!!

You get the best vantage point of the city from this park. It’s right by eateries and another park not too far from it. I keep coming back here every time I’m in the area. It hasn’t been too crowded since Covid, so it’s nice. You can take nice photos of the skyline at night and it’s just as nice during the day. It tends to get a little chilly at night even in the summer time so it’s nice to walk along here after a hot humid day. Parking is limited on the street, but it’s possible. Lately, it’s been hard to find parking, so you may have to park at a garage. I suggest parking a little further to avoid paying a lot for parking.

Sitting over the edge in Fan Pier Park, watching the sunset just by the Boston skyline is one of the most calming, beautiful sights. Nice for an evening walk

Came at night. It was beautiful. One spot had a wedding recept. Another had a fire with people around it. It was almost other worldly. So beautiful. Didnt get to many parts of Boston, but I am very happy we came to this spot. Will be back for sure!

My goto spot every time I visit Boston. A photographers delight either during sunset or sunrise. Get a great view of the Boston harbour skyline. Perfect spot for those winter time lapses. Will surely be visiting the Fan pier park again soon. Good place for an evening walk. Lots of great restaurants within the vicinity as well

I loved strolling along the water. There are plenty of benches. Plenty of space to view the harbor and lots of informative boards to understand the history of the area. There is a perfect blend of the cobblestones and newer pavement to make walking easier.

Excellent public park with mordern seating area and a fantastic view. The park was just renovated and now features a water fall. Its is amazing in the day and even better at night with luminous lighting. This small park is around bunch of dinner places and bars. parking is free at night time after 8:00pm but will cost money to park in the morning at a nearby parking spots. I have attached some pictures below of my night visit at the park. It also has Citi bike station nearby.

The view is great, and it is walking distance (if you dont mind walking around a bit) from all that city has to offer. Parking is hard to find, but this is close by central T station (local train system) which makes it a great way to commute around.

Best place to enjoy the bey skyline of Boston. Can come here with loved ones and can hangout in the bars in summers. For winters they also have a fire pit where you can sit, relax and enjoy the beautiful view of Boston buildings. A must place to visit of you are coming to boston for the first time. There are a lot of very good restaurants nearby and also clubs if you are a party person. Its quite near to the South station. You can walk from the South station of you are coming via train or bus or taking a metro.

There is no better place in Boston to spend your evening than fan pier. Catch an amazing view of the Boston skyline from here and also spend some time plane spotting catching the approach to Boston Logan if you are an AVGeek. Nearby attractions include the Boston tea party museum

There’s some construction at the west part of the park. The views here are amazing especially at night. With the views of Boston Harbor and the water to reflect all the lights from the buildings to the north this is a great place to spend time with your significant other. There’s also a large fire pit where you sit down and rest your legs.

Relaxing waterfront views. Youd almost think you were not in Boston if you were not used to the seaport district. Wonderful food places in the area make along the waterfront a great place to enjoy your lunch with friends and coworkers.

Recently completed renovated, now it has an awesome board walk, plenty of seating and a million near by places to check out. If you are coming to Boston and want something different then government center to look at, make the trip across the easily walkable bridge and explore!

A really nice water front park for family to hang out. You can get some nice pic of the Boston downtown. In addition, there are many cool and hip restaurants nearby.

The Seaport District is the newest Boston neighborhood. Every time I come back here it looks completely different. Fan Pier is a great place to go for a stroll, watch the boats come in, or watch planes take off from nearby Logan Airport.

This park is a much needed asset to the city of Boston in many different ways. First off, this park gives off lots of stellar views of the city which does make a tourist or a worker feel happy when they walk through the park. Also, the park does give off really good vibes as it is pretty peaceful, there are people chit chatting about life and that there is the marina too filled with boats and birds. Overall, if youre looking for a relaxing place to hang out or chill out, this park is for you.

The pier view here is the best in the City, and its almost as if youre in New York but less crowded altogether. Then at nights you see these beautiful lights and that clock tower lit and its just surreal to look at.

Picture worthy and relaxing as modern waterfront parks go. The harbor and urbanscape views are obviously the main draw. Great place for people (and seagull) watching too. I didnt notice any public restrooms within the vicinity.

Was really looking forward to the see saw but instead all I found were two lost children where are their parents I don’t know? One is crying and is making me uncomfortable so we’re leaving to go look at boats probably not coming back.Arrangement: 4/5Grass: 5/5Mysterious Pillars: 4/5Boston: 4/5Overall: 3/5
