Editors' Picks
This popular 22-acre urban park isn’t really an island, but rather the eastern point of the peninsula that juts into Boston Harbor. Castle Island is dominated by Fort Independence, a five-bastioned granite structure built between 1834 and 1851, but it also offers a supervised swimming area, fishing, picnic tables, a tot lot, restrooms, first aid and life guard functions, and concession stands. Open year-round. Fort Independence is open from Memorial Day to Columbus Day. Hours vary. Limited parking available.
