A Staten Island Park Where Sports Meet Bluebelt Wetlands
Sports courts and playgrounds open onto a quiet Bluebelt edge with wooded paths nearby.
🌿 Sports Beside the Bluebelt
Bloomingdale Park gives Staten Island a two part afternoon. The sports side is all crisp lines and active play, with basketball courts and athletic fields, a playground, and paved paths that keep the place moving. Then the landscape loosens into undeveloped wetland edges, where a stream runs through the Bluebelt.
At 138 acres, it has room for a full lap without feeling like a single purpose field complex. The layout rewards a longer visit, with basketball courts and undeveloped wetlands in one visit, whether you arrive to shoot around, let kids burn off energy, or trade noise for a wooded walk. The clean turf field and tree lined trail make that contrast easy to read.
The park is rated 4.6 from 1,097 reviews, has a comfort station, and stays open daily from 6:00 AM to 10:00 PM. Find it at 299 Bloomingdale Road, where the active zones give way to a quieter Staten Island landscape.
