- Great area, lots to eat, occasional events worth checking out too. Go with friends or family. It makes things really fun. Also, check out the pier. You can catch a water taxi in Alexandria, Virginia.
- Shameka NathanAugust 4, 2013First boardwalk closes at 12am, the boardwalk closer to Gaylord closes at 12:30am. If you're expecting to sit near the water after hrs, your best bet is to walk the path behind Gaylord... Fyi :)
- Very scenic view of the Potomac! Skyline looks beautiful, especially around sunset! Lots to do, especially if you have money! Besides that, keep an eye out for any special events! Metrobus accessible.
- Has some spectacular sunsets and views! Lots of activities and the Potomac River looks great from the Boardwalk. Walkable and Pedestrian friendly. Lots of places to sit down
- jeyoDecember 14, 2015Such a fun place to spend the afternoon with family. Peruse the shops and watch the little ones climb all over a screaming statue's face.
- Kelsey P.October 15, 2016A great place to go for the day! Lots of shopping and activities to keep the whole family entertained.
- Christiana MurrayNovember 2, 2013if you happen to be in the National Harbor please go check out Cadillac Ranch awesome food and great entertainment watching people ride the mechanical bull
- Daniel Saint-VictorApril 18, 2014Great place to walk and relax. Avoid the Children's Museum though- not enough to be worth the $10 per person cover.
- Very good spot to walk along after lunch/dinner/drinks. Great date spot ❤️❤️
- Faith JoySeptember 4, 2014The Prosecco Sangria at McCormick & Schmick's is really great, especially since I don't drink alcohol drinks.
- RCAugust 7, 2014Very nice spot to just hang out and enjoy all the festivities, too bad when we want it was really too hot to be outside.
- Chris GrayNovember 4, 2014Visit the pier to admire the docked boats, illuminated ferris wheel, and calm water against a painted backdrop of sunset sky!
- Erin G.August 7, 2013Fun place for a day trip - children's museum, boats, carousel, park, ice cream, etc.
- Ponder why this is called a boardwalk when it's made almost completely out of bricks (and not boards) while relaxing near the Potomac River.
- Candace BlydenburghMay 4, 2014Definitely come for the wine and food festival and be prepared to spend the night
