Cove Island

A great place for walking, it has large paved tracks two beaches and many picnic areas. The two beaches are so-so, not appealing at low tide but decent at high tide. Saw some winter avian residents this week.

BEAUTIFUL park with great views! Great place for walking, running, walking the dog, or just enjoying the outdoors. Spacious. Easy to find space away from others.

Came here for the day with my dog. Great place for her to run around but unfortunately dogs aren’t allowed on the sand. Many different fields to lay on, paths to walk and water to dip in! Parking is expensive if you aren’t a resident and could take some time to get up the street but definitely doable with about a 15 min walk… Nice spot to spend the day that has all in one beach & park!

One of my favorite places to go for a walk, picnic, or trip to the beach in Stamford. The sunrises and sunsets are always gorgeous near the shore. Many people walk their dogs, and there’s also a playground for children. During the summer, a beach permit is required otherwise you’ll have to pay for a day pass.

Miles of neat walking and biking paths. Gorgeous views of Long Island sound. Nice beach. Convenient restrooms at either end. Needs a season pass (for stamford residents) or a day pass for non residents to enter via vehicle and park. There's a free tram that runs in the summer and takes you around the whole park if you are walking or biking challenged! Picnic benches abound. Great place for a picnic lunch.

Beautiful and serene place for a quiet afternoon walk. The park is well maintained except there are no restrooms. You can sit on the benches overlooking the river and have some quiet time to yourself. The view is amazing. The walking track is pretty small.

Cove Island Beach is a picturesque coastal destination that offers a unique blend of natural beauty, recreational opportunities, and a peaceful atmosphere The beach features a stunning coastline with soft, sandy shores that stretch along the sound. The sandy beach area is often accompanied by the presence of smooth, colorful pebbles and seashells, adding to its natural charm.
