I feel like a lot of great ideas were made here

Plenty of parking spots, magical sunrise view and well maintained...

My girlfriend and I spent 4 hours here. It was Fathers Day, so a little more crowded from what I remember. It was pleasant and clean (there were signs of a past celebration - nothing major). Beautiful scenery and a gorgeous day!

Great place for kiddos but dont let them take their shoes off on the beach area

This park is a great place to go for a nice walk, run or a bike ride off the waterfront.

Just sitting there looking at the water peaceful

Unique compared to downtown Seattle, the art and more laid back, sedate park makes this a pleasant place

Great place for a quite stroll see some historic facts enjoy the view of the ocean have a quiet reading on the benches and there is always enough parking

Very nice scenic view of the waterfront. Great trails to walk your dog or a night out.

I Love this place it smells like the sea and the views are beautiful well maintained I used to bring my pup all the time little cove to play or swim in water

Cool little park in Tacoma. I liked the water view here and the shrine was pretty neat. Not many people around so it was a nice cute little park to spend some time with my girlfriend.

Beautiful little walking park.

Nice and clean. No garbage. Hoping we can fish here next.

Nice view of the water and great spot to have lunch with family or friends and nice place to go for walks or bike rides

We loved it, beautiful place to visit, relaxing view kids loved it as well.

Great place to walk your dog, go for a jog, or just sit and enjoy the view.

To much garbage. I packed some out.

Beautiful water front to walk around,, great place to kayak

Great place on a warm day. Enjoyed the cool breeze & the beach area. I was surprised that it wasnt to crowded.

Its a great place to run or just to hang out

Nice vegetation and good place to view the ocean.

Nice place to enjoy the sun

Absolutely beautiful!, Amazing Wonderful views! Great foto spot!

Nice place to walk dogs or watch the ships going in and out of the port.

Nice park, was there for wedding pictures.

A very beautiful place for walks or relaxation.

Very relaxing place

I loved the place to walk and just relax.

Its beautiful and relaxing

We love it, the view is beautiful and its soooooo peaceful.

Wow! Great place to get relaxed. Yoga, day dream, chill out, think about what life has for you. THANK GOD FOR ALL HES GIVEN US IN THIS WORLD WE ARE IN. SO ALSO A PLACE TO PRAY AND NE THANKFUL. SO TAKE CARE OF THOSE AROUND. THOSE WHO ARE CLOSE AND THE ONES WHO ARE GONE. BE THANKFUL AND BLESSED. AMEN

Very nice to let the kids run around, up and down the little hills with out having to stay 1 foot away. Just a nice spot to walk with out having the ROAD 5 ft away.

Love walking out here! The stroll always calms me! Brings my life back to center!

Beautiful waterfront of Tacoma. Much better than Seattle

So scenic!

A good place to run off the energy of a 2year old

I smashed here b4

Great park and super clean

Great place to take a stroll and take in the views.

A quiet and beautiful little park right next to the Chinese Reconciliation Park in Tacomas Old Town neighborhood.

Dr Henry Jekyll Park on the other side of town is much nicer.

Very interesting and. Beautiful place to get away for a while, and stay local.

I love how the water look like and all the tugboat

Beautiful little place to roam around.

Another great place for the family outing catch crabs see seals walk by the water eat beautiful

Lots of valuable information if u read the displays. Peaceful an beautiful..

Love Ruston way

Rather noisy with the traffic

Can busy at times but normally a nice quiet beautiful park

Very Beautiful place. Had an amazing time with our family walk here.

Good place to take the family for a quiet picnic. Go earlier in the day before the riffraff comes out.

Our go-to kayaking put-in! Nearby parking, level pathway, mostly hard and clean sand accessible at all states of the tide. Paddle along the waterfront to Point Defiance or Thea Foss waterway. Seals, seabirds and watering holes!

Blue skys, calm blue waters, the park was absolutely breath taking today! Intriguing architecture! : )

Very nice and calm park, watch for dog poop, since dog owners do not use the bags that are also provided. But Park itself is very nice.

A solid 5, saw a bumble bee

I was Unaware of the reason for this gem of a park, which is part of the less reputable early history of Tacoma.

Beach was very nice unfortunately stupid people break glass there, that was my only concern

Hi jack. This park stands for what you did for Tacoma. Well done sir.

Beautiful sunrises, well kept, and lots to see and hear.

The water in the cove is very nice in the afternoon

Omg I love that this is here in Tacoma...

Perfect view of the South Sound

Movie scene indeed! with train passing by, dock and black beach, sea waves, and family with kids running.....

I love this park so much. Its so private and beautiful.

Part of one of the many areas to enjoy on Ruston Way.

Nice place to go for a walk

Very nice park

Got married here, so of course we love it!

Great place for sunrise pictures

Nice, clean and pleasant

Awesome place to visit.

Nice place for kyacking, bikes, long walks and jogging.

Good place to walk and explore. Not good for strollers.

Nice and quiet, but the recent vandalism makes it difficult to enjoy.

Moon Festival so charming in this setting! Will return tonight.

Nice view

Lovely park on Commencement Bay.

Where I go for my serenity !

Amazing little park, definitely worth the drive

One of the best views in Tacoma!!! Love walking the waterfront

Only negative is the lack of a water fountain, and the cage is only open in the late spring to early fall. Some of us walk year round.

Great open space,access to water

Great park

Beautiful views and Peaceful here

Lots of flowers in the spring

Always a nice stroll.

Lovely park with a terrible message, especially in the current Era of racism and xenophobia, had no idea what monsters our town folks had been. Its a decent setting with water views, benches and landscaping. Needs more parking on a hot summer day, and I dont believe there are bathrooms very near by.

Nice place a lot to see

Nice place to relax.

Wow!!!

Walking destination
