Constitution Beach — Restaurant in Boston

I grew up going to Shays beach ad I knew it then. I'm 60 now,so it's been a long time for I walked or rode my bicycle there. At one point I worked for a summer in the bath house. Much different then. In future years my dad was a daily visitor. My memories included many nights clam digging for our dinner steamers. I now since moved to New Hampshire but visit every weekend to babysit my beautiful granddaughters. Now we all go here in the summer. As a kid I also played basketball and hung out with my friends. I also ices kated. And played hockey at the iceskating rink. Wonderful memories with my mom,dad siblings and friends,with videos documenting them. Most recent memory however is sad for I lost my mother's crucifix she gave me just prior to her passing 30 yrs ago. I grew up on Chelses st. East Boston. Another memory I must mention is the excitement of airplanes taking off across the water. It's a beautiful beach which provides everything u expect to enjoy an entire day...

A jewel that needs attention!

Broken steps and wall at bath house are a public hazard. Been this way for years now, DCR doesn't seem to care. Everything is overgrown and unkept.new trees and shrubs destroyed. The water is contaminated on any particular day so check before you go. Public drinking, pot smoking, occasionally nude men walking around. Bicycle and electric scooter hazards on the walkways, be careful. Speed limit on road is 10mph, speed limit on walkways is 30mph? It can get trashy there. No charcoal grilling, no camping!

The DCR waste a lot of taxpayers money! 1.5 million to touch up a playground? Original cost was 745k, more than doubled to 1.5 million.. Someone's making serious money off of this project! Talk about crooked!

I could build a custom house worth 3+ million with a budget like that, but this agency is blowing taxpayers money on a redo of a playground... And they're using the old swings to boot..

Another defunked state...

i wouldnt really reccomend actually going here if you want to go to a beach. i mean yes its ok for sunbathing and just to relax but keep in mind that are hardly ever waves here and in total its only about a .25 ( quarter mile ) long its a local spot, its cool to visit but as for beaches go everyone goes to Revere which is just a quick 15 min train ride or drive away this place is mostly for if you want to relax and get away from the crowds its nice but honestly your not missing much after an hour youl want to leave not even a snack bar on site. surprised they even have a bath so you can wash the sand off cuz trust me the sand here isnt very clean you can see how gross it is as you get closer. take a pass, its also quite noisey with all the planes taking off from the runways just a short 2000 ft away only cool thing to enjoy here, there are better options...
