Salem Willows Park offers a seaside change of pace from the downtown historic attractions.
Tree-lined walks, waterfront views and open spaces sit alongside the area’s arcades and food businesses, giving visitors a choice between a quiet harbor stroll and a more lively family outing.
The public park and the privately operated amusements do not necessarily share the same hours. Check individual businesses before planning a visit around games or food, especially outside summer. The photograph shows the park’s willow-lined path; seasonal foliage and the availability of nearby attractions will vary.
