Review:
Boston’s Castle Island Park offers a combination of outdoor recreation and history. No longer a true island, Castle Island has been connected to the mainland since 1928.
Visit Fort Independence, constructed in 1833 to replace the original fort from the 1600’s. The fort feel out of use after the Civil War and is now listed on the National Register of Historic Places.
Additional activities at the park include swimming at any of the area’s beaches, walking or running along the Pleasure Bay Loop or fishing. There are restroom facilities with showers, playgrounds and picnic areas with grilling stations.
