Guide
Good to know
Bring kids for varied interests
The nearby Alice Austen House, stairs to climb, bird watching, and ship spotting keep toddlers engaged.
Visit at sunset or moonrise
The views of Manhattan, the Verrazano Bridge, and the harbor are particularly striking during golden hour.
Come for the views, not swimming
This is a rocky waterfront park, not a beach with sand or swimmable water.
Expect it to fill on nice days
The small space draws regular midday visitors, so arrive early if you want a bench.
Check cleanliness before visiting
Trash and goose droppings appear occasionally, particularly after storms or rough water.
