Back Bays

  Even if you don’t live on the bay- there are opportunities to enjoy the calm (and usually warmer) back bay waterways.  Avalon and Stone Harbor have several public docks. The easiest for parking:  Avalon Bay Park with a fishing/crabbing dock on 53rd Street, and swimming dock/ kayak launch area on 57th Street.  Other docks: 8th Street, over the 21st and 25th Street bridges, 23rd Street, 81st Street, 83rd Street, and 113th Street.
