Terrific place to put a kayak in to paddle the Great Fresh Kill in Staten Island. Saw at least 10 pairs of ospreys, dozens of turtles, and a stag. Waterfronts park is well maintained with a number of activities, a snack bar, and bathrooms.

One of my favorite places to visit for an enjoyable day by the water and watch the occasional boats go by. The area is kept very clean by the present groundskeeper. There are also tables for your use. I am happy I found this hidden Gem!

Good boat launch and parking. Bathrooms arent always open. Can be busy on weekends with Jet Skis who like to linger at the ramp.

Nice park. Clean bathrooms. Great marina. Annoying music being blared out of vehicles parked but other than that it is a nice place.

A very serene atmosphere for relaxing, taking walks, boat riding, leisure fishing, childrens play ground and a private marina. The 9-11 memorial site across the Arthur Kill just a view away. Nice music festivals and programs during summer for residents. Lovely, quiet and safe neighborhood .

Nice park on the water. There are a lot of features but only a few were open. Theres a snack shop and mini golf but they were closed. The putting green has not been maintaned in years but the horseshoe pits look new. The boat ramp is kinda small and was quite crowded when I was there on a Sunday.

Seemingly little know marina with solidly built concrete floating docks and many empty slips. Accomodating staff, dedicated air conditioned bathrooms. Very easy in and out. 25-30 minutes to navigate to Manhattan.

Not you typical park. As you come upon this waterfront gem, you see a large lighthouse. There is a miniature golf course, a large pier, pavilion for summer concerts and a boat ramp. There are plenty of seats to enjoy the nice days. There is a little of everything for everyone to enjoy. Bait cutting stations for the fishermen, walking paths with exercise stations strategically placed. There are restrooms centrally located, and right near the swings / slides for the young ones. This is a well thought out park that is continuing to expand. Kudos to the planners and facilitators.

Beautiful location for family and friends. Lovely view and theres also a boardwalk. No snack bar though so be sure to bring snacks and drinks if staying for a long period. Overall, its truly beautiful.

Review №47

Very nice. I never imagined that the city had do e such a nice job cleaning and constructing a boardwalk there. It was clean and well maintained. There are plenty of space for people fishing, benches to sit and enjoy the view while watching the ships passing by or just walk around the park like scenery on the boardwalk.Parking was pretty good too. But the place is a bit hard to find, since there are no street signs leading to it. Make sure to GPS your way there.

The contrast of 30 year makes one proud to live in Carteret. Nothing but gains bro. Its like Carteret went lifting over the winter and came out buff. The waterfront is just the start.

The park is very beautiful but it was a good idea that they also thought of disabled children and thus put swings and other games for them.

Review №92

Beautiful spot to walk at local with a view of New York on the other end. A lot of boat activity so pictures are lively.Only disappointing part is a portion of the pier has been closed off for better rebuilding, but that old steel pier portion made it kinda risky and entertaining.Nonetheless great spot to reflect and relax, also has a park for kids so enjoy and fishing is encouraged.
