With the Susquehanna River flowing right past downtown, water activities are a big part of life in Pennsylvania's capital city. The Pride of the Susquehanna riverboat is one fantastic way to make use of the waterways, and there are boat rental companies if you'd rather sent out on your own. Visit City Island Park in the center of the Susquehanna or Riverfront Park on the east bank of the river for open grassy spaces, family activities and water-cooled breezes.
