If you're in Boston and seeking a family-friendly playground with stunning river views, the Esplanade Playground is definitely worth a visit. Just be mindful of peak times to ensure a more enjoyable experience for everyone.

A playground with the view of Charles River can never go wrong. Plus, the play structures are versatile and accommodating kids at different ages. It includes a giant climbing structure with a slide, a big rock with boulder/climbing options, marry go around, a wooden climbing structure, and a zip line! Also well maintained. This is really a neat place to stop by.

My kids are 8 & 9 they loved this playground! great climbing structure, rock climbing, twirly thing, disc swing, wooden post climbing structure and an awesome zip line! This park is not enclosed for little kids

Park for older kids, some teenagers were hanging in there as well. Zipline used even by adults and a very tall slide accessible only through a high net meant for school aged kids.

The drought has dried up a lot of the grass, but it's still a beautiful spot, and there's plenty of wildlife if you walk down to the water's edge. The play structure is new and shiny and in perfect condition. The DCR employees are doing a great job keeping it clean. It's a peaceful little oasis right there in the heart of the city!
