About Mariner Point Park

The park has paved and natural surface trails, a fishing pier, a boat ramp for kayaks and small craft, a large playground, and expansive picnic areas. Winter waterfowl and summer paddling make it a year-round draw.

It's the everyday outdoor centerpiece for Edgewood and Joppa residents.
