Carson Beach is a regional beach
with good water quality. The newly restored Edward J. McCormack Bathhouse
is a year-round gathering place for local residents and visitors. The
bathhouse, one of the first facilities completed as part of the "Back
to the Beaches" effort, offers showers, changing facilities, public
restrooms, water fountains and foot showers for beachgoers. New sand, new
walkways, benches, lighting, shade shelters and award winning landscaping
have helped to make Carson Beach a popular destination. The newly
renovated Mother's Rest provides an excellent place to sit and enjoy the
wonderful views of the Harbor or to enjoy a waterfront picnic. Owned and
operated by the Department of Conservation and Recreation.
Access: Parking lots are
available adjacent to the bathhouse. The beach is also accessible via
public transportation. Take the MBTA Red Line to the UMASS/JFK stop and
walk across Day Boulevard or take the City Point #11 bus from the MBTA Red
Line's Broadway Station to the G Street stop.
