Playground

Seaside Park is already a solid reason to come to Bridgeport, and the playground here makes it even more of a no-brainer for families. The water feature is the real draw on hot days — kids basically don’t want to leave. Equipment is kept up well, which honestly isn’t something you can say about every city playground, and there’s enough variety that younger kids and older ones can both find something. With the beach right there, you can easily make a full day of it.
