Before the pandemic I would have given a better review, as it is a charming, peaceful little retreat, if a bit sterile, with lovely horticulture and better birding than might be expected. When the pandemic first hit, the park rightfully put in place a rule for visitors to wear masks. A fair share of outrageously remiss visitors would not comply with this crucial CDC protocol but at least the park staff aptly enforced the rule to the unmasked. No more. Today I visited the park hoping for a bit of solace and saw several visitors lounging on the lawn and not wearing masks, as if life were just fine - a pandemic, whats that? I told a park security guard about this and the guard, while in agreement with my viewpoint, said they were told by the big boss that many visitors complained about park staff being mask police and harassing them to wear masks, so now the staff cannot tell visitors to mask up. They told me if I did not like this precedent, then I should leave the park. What an obscenely incompetent and cowardly answer that was. It is an outright abomination that in a time when 180,000 people in the US have died from COVID-19, Newport Green Park Management is caving in to criminally selfish and ignorant people who are cry-babying and bellyaching (poor things, this is the smallest violin and its playing just for you!) that being told to wear a mask and thus preserve human life is an act of harassment and asking a grand sacrifice of them. How morally bankrupt the park management is to take this stance during a modern day plague.

Covid Time: Sep 2020This is a great park, small considering the area.Biggest problem is some people and even kids not wearing masks.Be safe !

This place is so Amzing. My kids love it at this park and its so clean and beautiful. The water pad its super fun for the kids and parents to get wet and play with their children. And the sand area really makes you feel like you are sy a beach its so awesome. I would definitely recommend to everyone.

Very good park, well located and clean. They’re limiting the visit to 45 minutes per family due to COVID and to avoid large gatherings, however when I have been there, I was able to sit, relax and enjoy with my family.There is a playground close to the park which is open during the weekends.

Even with Covid 19 going its a nice area to take the little ones to play in the sand area. Great view and nice place to mingle with a safe social distance.

Really beautiful park for children of all ages. Great playground. Unlike anywhere we have ever seen. Very clean and well taken care of. We went there to look at the scenery of New York and were pleasantly surprised to find this place. Our kids had a blast!

I love this park! Ive been coming to this park since it opened, I love the grass area to have a picnic and the playground area for young children. The little water park they have there is great in the summer, there is also a beach area with a wonderful view of Manhattan. Its just really a beautiful and clean park, you will never find a cigarette bud or garbage all over the floor like some other parks. They also have security guard walking around which is a plus. Its so close to my home I bring my daughter there almost daily, as long as the weather permits. If you dont live in the area parking is 25¢ for ten minutes and you will get a boot if you dont keep up with the meter. I would recommend this park to anyone really.

This park is absolutely beautiful! So clean with a welcoming friendly environment. The playground area had fun areas for all ages: slides, jungle gym, swings, splash area - you name it. The playground area is big enough for the kids to run around freely. I would recommend this park for safe family fun!

It’s a great place to take your family. Parking is $1.50 an hour. With a two hour limit. They have a carousel in the summertime for 1 dollar a ride. Huge Sandy beach area to sunbathe or have the kids play in. Sprinklers, nice playground. Basically you can spend the entire day here and not get bored. Only drawback is the parking limits.

The park is really good for all ages. The grass is maintained almost year around (real or not real). Sometimes older kids or group of men are playing soccer or cricket, but the green area is large enough to share. Right at the door is a childrens park with swings, slides and water sprinklers in summer. In summer there is also carousel which makes it more interesting for kids.

Great place to relax/read a book, go for a walk, and great view of the City. It was neat to have the beach area as well. Its a great place to go by yourself or with the family. The carousel added a nice touch.

Review №57

This place is great for kids of different ages. We were in the playground/splash park section. I love it here because the whole playground is enclosed so my little guy can have a tiny bit more freedom. Its also great because there are sections for big kids, and babies in separate but conjoined areas. There are separate areas for baby and big swings as well.My kids tend to spend the majority of their time in the splash park portion, which is perfect. The only downsides here are that some of the rubber flooring is missing or broken in this area and the surrounding wall area is a concrete & stone ledge, so you need to be a little cautious to make sure the kids arent running and slipping near the edges.There is also an area at the entrance with picnic tables and benches. Overall, a great place to spend a fun and relaxing afternoon with the kids.

Review №58

Neat and clean. Good number of activities for kids. Sand park, green park, play area - all at one place make it attractive for parents and kids. Most of the kids spend their evening in this park for the short summer period that we guys have in NJ. My daughter loves this park

Literary best playground and a hang out spot we were lucky to discover ! It’s like a mini waterpark for kids, carousel, newport “ beach “ area, city views, lux buildings around, lounge beds / and beach chairs. We are not sure if they do close after LDW, but the whole August we were there almost every day. It does get crowded a bit, there are benches for mommy’s and nanny’s with the shade, security to watch the park or assist you, restrooms, and a splash section. We take plenty of videos, that we wish we could post.

Great park! Its nicely located to catch an ocean breeze. They have a few parts to the park; from a sandy area for sun bathing and sand castles to a lush green for frisbee and soccer, lets not forget the best features for the little ones! They have swings for young and younger, a carousel, playground climbing fun and a lovely splash area. Just love it!

Lovely park right next to the boardwalk. Has a section which is made up like a beach with Adirondack chairs, overlooking the Hudson and Manhattan skyline. Has a ping pong table made of concrete. They also screen movies during the summer. But does get crowded with families and kids in the evening.
