Deer Island HarborWalk, Massachusetts, United States

Always a good walk
Foggy day yesterday, you couldn't see the tops of the Digesters or Boston or the airport. Every now and then you'd hear a plane. We were especially looking for the new Irish Memorial at Deer Island, and only found it due to the fortuitous timing of a shoe needing retying. This memorial is on the "upper level" as it was, sort of facing Logan airport, close-ish to where Bella is remembered and above the panel remembering the Native Americans who perished on the site. You do have to climb about 40 feet of path to get to the memorial, I've attached a picture

Our favorite place in Boston
Always a good walk. Was nice this summer when they added parking “beyond the gate”, but you can still usually find a space in the small lot. A bit over 2.5 miles for the regular loop, but there are extra trails (and hills) if you want a longer stroll. Great place to watch sunrise or sunset, and airport and seaport traffic. Fun for dogs, too!

Beautiful Views of the Ocean and Boston skyline
Perfect walk with beautiful views of the Atlantic Ocean and Boston. The trails were easy to walk, and it was just a nice place to unwind. I appreciated the signage. It was difficult to find a parking space, so I'd suggest avoiding the week-end.
