The center of the fun here at Staten Island's South Beach is the 1.7 mile boardwalk, which is always hosting festivals, concerts, and other events. If you're visiting with the kids, check out the playground, roller hockey rink, shuffleboard, bocce courts, and ball fields, or enjoy lunch at one of the great picnic areas. Of course, the boardwalk is also perfect for those looking to simply enjoy a pleasant stroll while gazing at the water. Kids and adults alike will enjoy the spectacular Dolphin Fountain at the North end of the boardwalk; an iconic image for Staten Islanders. Fisherman should head straight for the Ocean Breeze Fishing Pier which, at 835 feet long, is one of the largest in the city, and also offers great views. History buffs are sure to appreciate the flags and graphics at Freedom Circle, located at the south end, which pays tribute to the women and men who have fought to defend our freedom. There is even a park at South Beach especially geared towards older folk, filled with checkerboard tables, benches, and boccie courts, while you soak in some sun and breathe the fresh ocean air. Finally, don't miss the new Boardwalk catering hall and restaurant, where you can enjoy a boardwalk event with great food, and the best of the shoreline views at South Beach.
