Description

Belle Isle Marsh is a 152 acre park on a 241 acre marsh land that shows people what the Massachusetts Bay Shoreline once looked like, before civilization moved in and built up Boston. It's a thriving ecosystem, full of wildflowers, fish, shellfish, and birds, which all contribute to making this area fertile and living. The Department of Conservation has set aside 28 acres of the park to develop walking paths lined with benches to rest on, as well as an observation tower. As the last salt marsh in Boston, a visit here is worth while, so you can learn about and experience Boston's roots.
