Windjammer Park

Waterfront natural area & beach with trails, ball fields, playgrounds & a landmark windmill.

This place is absolutely amazing and beautiful. Very clean and well kept. My two dogs love going there even if they do need to stay on leashes. There are at least two children's play areas, and an adorable book walk.

Views from this park are beautiful! Took the kids for the first time here and they loved the splash park but the visit went sour due to an unsupervised child about 10+ that kept spraying kids in the face with the cannon, multiple parents asked him to stop but he would not stop so wandered down to the Lagoon which was alright...my kids were a little offput by the smell...it was a overall a nice first trip here but probably wouldnt go out of my way though to come here again.

It’s a giant brownfield for the entire town, with a sewer outflow pipe right in the middle of the beach and a sign warning people that the water is likely to have high bacteria concentrations on a regular basis. When I was there a family of tourists, who didn’t recognize what that sign meant, presumably due to a language barrier and a naive expectation that no one in America would create a park with an apparent swimming beach on top of a sewer line and a giant municipal brownfield(?!), …had their child playing knee deep in the contaminated sand, mud and water. When I tried to warn them and explain the circumstances and the meaning of the sign, at first they were skeptical and sort of incredulous. For the record, I share their incredulity. At an absolute minimum, for the physical safety of visitors who might not speak the cya jargon of disingenuous bureaucracy that so permeates American culture, much more prominent signage. Including perhaps a physical barrier in the general vicinity of the sewage outflow pipe extending to any shoreline that is likely to be contaminated to an unhealthful degree, which is likely to be the entire waterfront of all of the parks on this very sheltered, shallow bay with minimal exchange with open water to dissipate the poop. Yeeuuch!!!
