Walk the brand new, ~mile long board and take in the scenery. It's beautiful. You can also walk out to infamous Charles Island when the tide is low, but ONLY when it's low.

Tom Maxwell

Beautiful boardwalk , nice beach for a summer swim . Be careful not to veer into the private beach , though.

Kaitlin

One of my favorite places to get some exercise and enjoy the views from the boardwalk . Great in all seasons — I think going here after a big snow might be my favorite.

Edward Homick

at low tide , walk out to Charles Island , an important part of Connecticut folklore and history, go try and find the treasure buried there! Just make sure to make it back to mainland before high tide!

April Grace

Two big family rest areas and a great kids play area near the Sears. It's just too bad the food court is upstairs all the way at the other end of the mall. - Amanda Ibrahim
