North Channel West Canoe Launch

I kayaked here on a weekday morning, and I was surprised that there was actually a latch on the porta-john (but no toilet paper, as usual). While I was peeing at 12 pm, a woman, who couldn't speak English, and doesn't understand that "red means stop and green means go" ripped the door open, even though I had it latched. Be warned, Hindus litter this area with coconuts, flowers, limes & other fruit, cloth & saris, statues, coins, bamboo sticks, and even cremation ashes! Unlike the Ganges, the enclosed Jamaica Bay does not sweep the refuse away. "Saris...strangle the sea grass, flowers...choke the birds, and fruits disrupt the food chain." If you go there in the evening when the religious practices are happening, you may get yelled at, like I was, for just being there, and enjoying my national park.

Very nice Kiteboarding place & also dog friendly, parking have very nice & sunset 🌅 also very beautiful views

A good place to go when you don't want to get out your car but still want to have a close enough view to the water. Get there early though small parking lot.

Actually beautiful area to walk and enjoy the sunsets and or sunrise. Great place to walk or just sit and watch the water very calming.
