If you live in Connecticut or plan on traveling there, there is a secret beach you need to know about: Pleasure Beach in Bridgeport. Pleasure Beach began as an amusement park in 1892 and featured rollercoasters, rides, games a dance hall and so much more. It operated until 1952. The music/dance hall drew people until the 70's. After fires destroyed rides and the dance hall, it closed in the 70's. In the early 90's the bridge connecting it to the mainland (Pleasure Beach is a barrier beach 2.5 miles long. Barrier beaches have a body of water between themselves and the shoreline.) It became a ghost town for many years. In 2014, Bridgeport had cleaned it up and offered free ferry service to and from the beach all day every 20 minutes, and trams to get to the beach. The water taxi can be picked up at the intersection of Seaview Avenue and Central Avenue. Head down Central Avenue and when you hit Seaview, park your car on the street for free. You will see the dock pictured in the beginning of this video! There is a soft white sand beach and others full of shells, all gorgeous! #connecticut #secretbeaches #thingstodoinct #topsecret😎 #connecticutbeaches #travelgramwithlaurab

The place has a lot of potential to attract more visitors. However, the beach the sand and water will not be the main attraction no matter how much money the city pour into it. The beach quality is just not there. The pavilion was empty, not even open. I would go there for walks, long walks if there was a trek around the island but it seemed there wasn't any. There were quite a few towers with birds nesting there, and that was really cool. It seemed there were Piping Plovers all around (at least the signs said that). Lots of shells, lots of nature and fresh breeze. Would recommend it for sure.

Beautiful! Tons if potential. Saw so many cool shells and plants I had never seen before. There's a gorgeous boardwalk with signs showing the history of pleasure beach as you walk in. It's far to the beach which is good to see a lot of nature on the way! you can always take a cart there or back. We walked in and rode back..the cart drivers are really friendly. Only thing is, there's nice new garbage cans where they've renovated but they need to ADD SOME GARBAGE CANS ALL DOWN THE BEACH PLEASEEEE. People unfortunately aren't waking it back...come on let's keep it clean it looks so nice and Bridgeport...

Wow! I walked to Pleasure Beach from Long Beach. It was about 2 miles one way. The walk was amazing!! So peaceful. I felt like I was on a vacation adventure. I walked to the right away from the beach.The sand eventually turned into very old pavement. There was a lot of talk grass and an abandoned building. There was some trash strewn about. There is a newish pavilion with swings and umbrellas. There was not a soul in sight and it was a bit creepy. There is a nice boardwalk that lead to the beach. I went on a nice day in April and really did not expect to see anyone. I really...
