Seaside Wildlife Nature Park

“Seaside Wildlife Nature Park is a breathtaking natural treasure on Staten Island! The combination of coastal scenery and diverse wildlife makes every visit feel like a genuine escape into nature. Perfect for birdwatching, nature walks, and simply soaking in the beauty of the shoreline and surrounding habitats. The park is well maintained and the wildlife sightings never disappoint. A wonderful and serene destination that reminds you how spectacular Staten Island's natural landscape truly is!”

“Seaside Wildlife Nature Park may be on the smaller side, but it’s a peaceful little escape from the busy streets of Staten Island. It’s a great spot to take your dog for a walk and get some fresh air, and there’s also a small playground area for kids to enjoy. They’re currently building new bathrooms, which will be a nice upgrade. One of my favorite parts of the park is the small wooden bridge that goes over the marsh - it’s a quiet, scenic spot that makes you feel tucked away from the city. In the summertime, if you look closely near the rocks, you can sometimes spot snakes and salamanders, which is a cool bonus for nature lovers. Overall, it’s a cozy, underrated park perfect for a calm afternoon outdoors.”

“This is an amazing little park. It has swings, two big sized play areas and for the little ones a gated play area as well. It also has a really nice splash zone. One of the water splash zones has sand in it so its simulating like you are at the beach. Also there is a little beach area but it is a little difficult to get down to there but so worth it.”
