Take the ferry here and make a day of it. This park is right on the water and has lots to offer including a soccer field RIGHT on the water, basketball courts, food and bars, this totally awesome swingset park that adults are TOTALLY (not at all but do it anyway) allowed to use, and some of the best views in Brooklyn.
