Shipyard Park in the Charlestown Navy Yard is the place to be. Spectacular vistas of the Boston Harbor and skyline. Hang out on the adirondack chairs while awaiting the Ferry to Long Wharf. Sweet playground with water feature for the little ones. Amphitheater, Memorial, beautiful brick paths lined with historic lights for a romantic stroll … a little something for everyone! Make a day of it and visit the USS Constitution and Museum and great Navy Yard restaurants!
What a special spot. Cute splash pad & nice park. Short walk to see sail boats in the harbor.
The place is awesome
Come by and enjoy the great views of the Boston skyline, USS Constitution and the Bunker Hill Monument
I feel so lucky to live next to the park, so much so that I share it with the many tourists and visitors I meet. My go-to tip for Boston touring is to 1) Walk the Freedom Trail 2) End at the USS Constitution 3)Take a break at Shipyard Park--enjoy the fountain and views 4) Have lunch at nearby Pier 6 (great views, food, and lobster roll for those who want to sample) 5) Take the MBTA ferry back--landing near Faneuil Hall and the Greenway. At $3.50 it is the best bargain in town. Every 15 mins during rush hour, 30 after that.
Awesome place to get a glimpse of ild pre war navy history they have the U.S.S Constitution and an old war world 2 ship called the USS CASSIN YOUNG
Very nice park
Great place to go and walk around and look at the sites or just sit on a park bench and watch the boats sailing in the harbor
