I'm sorry it took me so long to review, but my party boat experience couldn't have been better. My…read morehusband and I were here last September and only 4 other people showed up. You know that generally a party boat won't sail with so few, because of the price of gas, but the captain took us out anyway. The mates were first rate, the captain moved the boat whenever needed to keep the catches coming. Everyone got blues. At 3 each, my husband and I had the fewest catches in the boat! Someone pulled up a striper, and at lest one person, maybe 2 caught their limit. Easily the best party boat experience I've ever had

NEVER again, and I would give 0 stars if that was an option. First of all it is marketed as a…read more"party, fishing boat". It was neither a party and no one was catching fish. Start out showing up like any other charter fishing trip. Old man in parking lot yells that there "better not be any alcohol" in the cooler we had. Well, you probably should have told us that when we called & by the way we are 40 years old and had a couple cans of beers in the cooler. Not 21 years old with beer bongs. Anyway, the 3 beers were under all the ice and under our food,pop, waters so we left them and planned on not drinking them. Later at noon we went to get our sandwiches and the staff had sneakily went through the cooler and took them. Really? We didn't care that it was a dry trip, but very pissed someone would go through my belongings without me present. Last, I realize the charter can't necessarily guarantee catching a fish. However, no one was catching and it was advertised as a bass & blue fishing trip and then was changed to a fluke trip when we got on board. Here's a tip: change the name from "party fishing boat" to "sneaky rip off".

The park is in good condition, all new rubber mats along the bottom and trees surround the park so it's a beautiful spot to picnic that overlooks the water. During fall months there was no fee, I'm sure the summer it is packed here due to the beach. But if you have kids this is a fantastic place to spend a a few hours.

Fantastic beach! It's not huge, but it's still a decent size. Brought my 4 yr old here on a Sunday…read moreand had a great time! We arrived about 10:30 and there was plenty of space. The nice guy in parking told us it was $30 to park for nonresidents (assume that's both parking and pass, though not sure), but free parking was available a short distance up the road and entry fee would be just $10. We went with that even though it meant I would be carrying everything to the beach. The parking was really not far... maybe one wide city block. It's literally across the playground (which you can't cut to since it's part of the park and fenced in). Then you go down the hill which is all sidewalk (good when you have kiddos), and down to the paid parking and beach. Once you arrive to the parking, you go to the restroom building on the left and there's a sign that says "passes" on the right side. Go there to pay the $10 pass. There were some rules I wasn't aware of, so some tips: umbrellas need to be behind the cones. I believe the life guard said it was to keep the incoming tide from washing it out? The tide did come up a little during the day we were there. Also, no boogie boards allowed anywhere at the beaches with life guards. What I didn't know, was it was allowed at the private beach strip between the two public beaches. There are houses overlooking the private beach area, but everyone seems to use it or at least walk it to get from one public beach to the other. I'm sure if someone really didn't want you hanging out there, they'd tell you, but we seemed to be allowed. We also were just 2 people and not a party hanging out, so that probably helps. The water was warmish in the shallow waves but cooler once in. Water is pretty clear and some areas had more seaweed than others, but not bad. There are a ton of boat type shells and not much of others. The sand and waters are full of nice pebbles, stones, and larger stones. There is also a floating raft a short distance out (of both public beach areas) that you can swim to, although we did not since my daughter still doesn't swim well. The beach gets busy after noon, but it wasn't too bad. There are a couple outdoor showers by the bathrooms that worked really well. We didn't use the bathrooms so not sure how they were. I don't know if there's a concession stand; I didn't see one. But there was an ice cream truck that came by at the main beach. A nice playground is up the hill a little bit from the beach that we were going to visit, but decided to keep moving and go home. I'd definitely come here again. For $10 and a little hassle of carrying your things a short distance, it's a really pretty and clean beach, with nice views of sailboats on the water. The waves are gentle too, so it's good for little ones. Still watch them though bc as the day went on, the waves got a little bigger and has a good pull for small kiddos.

Good company wasn't just good, it was great!…read more I had a fishing charter planned for my father for quite some time, and we finally the bullet and took the trip Doug and Chuck (first mate) were great! I booked directly with Doug over the phone and paid the rest in cash on the day of sailing. We departed for an early morning 530 5 hour trip, watched the sunrise and slowly sailed pass for Trumbull, a few light houses, and into the New York waters. We started fishing for stripers for about 40 minutes with no luck and then moved onto a different spot where we started fishing for smaller fish. We ended up catching a lot of Porgies and Black Sea Bass and ended up having over 65 fish by the end of the trip. One of the highlights of this trip was catching a small sand shark! It was so fun and made my whole trip! Chuck, the first mate, gave us all the pointers and tips on how to fish, and even gave us some entertainment when the seagulls would catch the chum from the boat! He filleted all of the fish, and although there were a LOT of bones left in it, we still bought home a good amount of fish. I have never been deep sea fishing before but Doug and Chuck made it very easy. From the history lessons from the local surrounding areas, to the fun facts of the fish we were catching. The boat was clean, there were bathrooms onboard and the cabin was big , however the boat was a little dated. There was no soap in the bathroom or anywhere on board. We had to use hand sanitizer for a lot of stuff.
