Perfect place to meet family and friends.

A great place to just sit and think about things I love to come and watch the boats and the ducks on the water.

Great views and abundant parking. Completely surrounded by waters makes for great views. Grab a friend and a blanket and spend a good day together with your significant other.

The best place to fly a kite in the area due to there being a big open field next to the Potomac River where the winds blow through (where The Awakening Statue use to be), and such a beautiful sight at sunset over looking the water. I really love to take my foil power kites out there and I love spending time with my girlfriend there too. Also, there seems to be a lot of locals who like to bring out their coolers and fish, so that is a recommendation if that is your thing. In Spring during the Cherry Blossom Festival, Hains Point is a great resting place after hiking around the Tidal Basin, so that is another reason to head towards that area. FYI, be careful of hitting bikers around the roads.

Hains Point used to be more of a destination before the city moved the larger-than-life Great Awakening statue to National Harbor, but it is still a lovely place to visit -- especially with children. There are two large playground structures, with ample parking, a large gated grassy area containing picnic tables, and free restroom facilities during the spring and summer months. You can watch airplanes take off from National Airport, fish off the point or fly kites in the field surrounded by cherry trees loveliness in April. This is definitely an underappreciated spot in the DC area - bring your camera when you visit!
