Marguerite A. • April 17, 2011Great little museum with knowledgeable docents. Good exhibit on the 1942 Cocoanut Grove fire. Interesting info on mechanical fire box system. Worth stopping by if you are in the area.
Jessica L. • July 4, 2013Beautiful beach with public bathrooms, free parking and ice cream truck! It's a little rocky, but always a great time (:
Brent G. • June 21, 2015One of the best recent additions in Southie. A go-to spot after work and on weekends.
Tara S. • August 8, 2016Great hosts for the tour! Well worth the cost of admission.
Ian H. • December 25, 2018One of the best well hidden gem of Boston, small, secluded but beautiful...
Tanya G. • July 21, 2011This area is one of the things to happen to Boston in years! It has easily replaced the Back Bay as my favorite hangout.
LifeEnhancer • August 14, 2019Great for bringing kids. This FREE park has so many cool play options. Great views of the water and Seaport!
scavenger s. • August 7, 2012Take the free tours on weekends in the summer. The tour guides were fantastic! Great views of all of Southie!
Travelhound12 • April 25, 2020Nice place to hang out and people-watch, or read a book. Refreshing breeze from nearby Paradise Bay and Castle Island. Traffic volume is surprisingly low. Go there
Anjum P. • July 5, 2013Check the schedule before going. Limited times for ft independence. Castle island is great!
Travelhound12 • August 19, 2023Great views of Boston, East Boston & Logan Int’l Airport, & the Harbor Islands. Fresh air. Calming sounds of water splashing on sea walls. And best of all—open spaces—if you know where to go.
