Barretto Point Park (Bronx, NY)

This little park in the Bronx is bursting with activity. Located on the beautiful East River waterfront, fishers can sit on its piers and cast a line, and boaters take out canoes and kayaks for a turn around the river. Other attractions include a volleyball net, basketball court, and a playground.

But for those looking for a more relaxing time, the park, with its beautiful background of sky, grass, and water, makes a perfect place to spending the day reading or picnicking.
