Very nice and quiet small park, nice view of the ocean and hundreds of boats. Very few picnic tables, l would say less than ten. Be careful if you are there with kids very rocky steep shore, it could be dangerous for small kids. The Lighthouse is located in the center and it has very small parking lot.
Nice place to sit and relax, get you’re feet wet. Water can be high though. But great experience.
From this spot you will have a great view over Marblehead. 100% recommended
Right at the opening of the Marblehead Harbor. You see lots of all types of boats. Its a nice relaxing place. Parking is limited but worth it. Bring your binoculars!
Beautiful and historic. Classic New England coastline and a lovely harbor.
Beautiful place, an nice arra with plenty of picnic tables and benches to take in the views and light house.
Good view. Nice neighborhood. Good to spend a couple of hours.
Always a great place to visit. The houses leading to the park are amazing. Great place to see just after a storm, the waves crash really high. Some benches and covered areas, public bathroom is usually spotless. A fun climb tho the water, but not difficult in some areas. A small parking lot thats sufficient during off peak hours
Awesome other than the person who thought it was ok to use the pavilion as their personal picnic table
I loved the sea breeze it was so majestic and calm
Fishing here is great, bring the family and spend the day. The rocks and cliffs were a blast to explore and if its warm enough check out the water if youre brave.
Great place t o spend afternoon with friends and loved ones
Nice place for picnic and group outings..
Beautiful views from this little spot. Its the best place to catch the boat races and enjoy the ocean breeze.
Beautiful views of the harbor and an up-close look at the Marblehead Light, so pretty when lit! amazing sunsets!!
Cool park, very windy perfect for a hot summer day!
Peaceful & beautiful afternoon views of Marblehead looking across the harbor with many boats, yacht clubs & the craggy coastline.
Beautiful park! Small park with incredible views of the ocean all around!
Its Nov. So beautiful
Great spot. Nice benches on edge of cliffs.
Beautiful view and peaceful environment
Nice park with nice views
Beautiful and quiet place with amazing landscapes and free parking lot. Has tables for picnics and lots of benches in different locations so you could feel isolated and enjoy different views. Could be windy sometimes. Has public restrooms, and bench areas under the roof.
Beautiful place. Sunsets are amazing. Perfect for a getaway from the city. Plenty of seats. Plenty of green for a picnic. View is killer and very refreshing. Restrooms are seasonal and parking can be a problem depending hour/days.
Great destination for a bike ride and/or hike. But important note: No bathrooms! And none anywhere nearby.
Beautiful scenery. Such clean air you can see so far away!
A Awesome park to chill at
Beautiful place and scenarios.
Small park with beautiful Marblehead views and benches to relax and savour the ocean air. No amenities and small parking space, but worth a visit.
I just enjoy this spot. Great place to kick back, walk around a bit, take some pics, squeeze your loved one, have a snack... but I digress. Love the sea spray coming off the bold rocky coastline.
Best view Marblehead has to offer! Bring a picnic. Kick back on one of the many memorial benches and relax and watch boats and kayakers coming into and out of harbor. View of childrens island and another lighthouse located out on Bakers Island. Bring your dog, friends, or significant other to cozy up to as its windy out there!
Beautiful! View of Marblehead.
Beautiful location, parking and bathrooms on site.
Great location.
Love The view from this pRk. Great place to relax and watch the boats go by.
Beautiful relaxing park. Lots of benches and rocks to climb. Not a Frisbee type of place!
Great place to relax and rewind!!! So peaceful
Nice and quiet place to relaxing
We love this place. The views are always great no matter the weather.
Such a beautiful place to be with the ones you love. Perfect amount of shade. I love taking my family here its so up lifting and relaxing.
One of the most beautiful spots on Earth!
Nice park, good views of Marblehead & the ocean.
Beautiful ocean front park with lot of benches to admire the ocean and harbor
Chandler Hovey park is a nice venue (with a toilet block) at the end of the island called Marblehead neck on the opposite side of the bay from Marblehead itself. Marblehead Lighthouse is in the park. The lighthouse looks more like an oil derrick than my conception of a lighthouse, but it is in a very pleasant park named after Chandler Hovey who donated the land to the town.The park and or the lighthouse had drawn lots of people simply to sit and stare out at the sea. So we joined them for a little while.
I love this park. I don’t live in town anymore but every time I’m visiting I come here.
Nice place 4 sharing
One of the prettiest places in New England. From here you can see so much coastline.
A beautiful spot for a picnic or to watch the sailboat races on Wednesday nights in the summer. A great place for relaxing and enjoying a small piece of the gorgeous Massachusetts coastline in the picturesque town of Marblehead.
Beautiful place. Feel peace
Its beautiful and listed on National Historic Registry.
Ive been going there for over 50 years now. It is nice to see such a local treasure being kept up from generation to generation. So many cherished memories there.
Wow, what a view! A really nice place to visit and watch the boats in Marblehead harbor on a beautiful day!
Nice and cozy place... Would suggest to stop by on the side beaches that are int he way, around 1.5-2miles before the park
Beautiful vistas
Landmark. Marblehead is extremely picturesque and this lighthouse and location are a highlight. From Chandler Hovey park the view to the West includes all of Marblehead Harbor, Abbott Hall, Old North Church and Fort Sewell. To the Northwest is Salem Sound dotted with islands including Bakers Island Lighthouse and closer-by, Childrens Island. To the North and East, open water!This is a great place to watch sunrises and sunsets and sailboat races!
Beautiful views. Has benches and restrooms. Parking is hard and no playground.
Beautiful spot to just sit and enjoy the sounds of the ocean and watching the boats passing by.
Very nice park by the sea with rocky shore. Lot of benches for relaxing and enjoying the sea view. It hosts a unique light house. The parking is rather small, so it may be a problem during summer season.
Great place to have a lunch and enjoy stunning views
No quite, no stress, no more bad things... just sid and listen...
Nice place
Good for day camping
Fantastic views in a park tucked away in a quiet residential neighborhood
A nice birdwatching spot in the winter for ocean ducks!
Beautiful views.
The best view of Salem Sound. If you cant be on a boat, this is a close second best. The early 20th century lighthouse is cool too.
One of the best places to take in North Shore
This is a wonderful place to go for a picnic. Weather permitting of course. I will always remember the day I saw the Constitution ship sail around the harbor there.
Awesome views
Another great place to be in the summer on Marblehead Neck. Your above the water crashing against the rocks and watch youths learning how to sail.
Always a great place to stop and take in life
Great scenery. Very calm, beautiful area to go and just take in the beauty and center yourself.
Beautiful views of Marblehead Harbor and beyond. Plenty of benches and a public restroom make it a convenient place to hang out for a while, watching the boats go by or skimming stones on the water
Beautiful view
I like eating in my car here or having a picnic. This is also a great place to scuba dive or look for intertidal animals at low tide.There is a lighthouse and bathrooms (open seasonally).Sometimes people dont pick up their pet waste, be careful of that.
Nice view I go here to listen to the water
The best view of the ocean from Boston. The lighthouse is very scenic.
Very limited parking... Beautiful views, great place for a walk or picnic...
Pretty, relaxing spot to take a break and watch the boats
This place is tucked away but once you find it and explore you will be amazed! You must park on the street though and walk down.
Its a nice area for pictures and view of the water
Great views
Great photo spot, very scenic!!
Great view of the Harbor and the boats. Mace peaceful places . Not a lot parking space
Beauty....
The lighthouse is neat, cool for a picture. It isnt really a park though. Its a lighthouse on a patch of hill. Not a park like place for kids to play.
Beautiful spot to sit back, have a bit to eat and enjoy the scenery
Nice little scenic park with Rocky edges on the ocean.
Nice sunset place
Very nice place
Nice views!
