Spectacular views! That’s what you’ll be saying once you visit Bayonne, situated on a peninsula between Newark Bay, Kill Van Kull and the New York Bay. Joggers, walkers and cyclists love what Bayonne has to offer – traffic free exercising on the Hudson River Waterfront.

The city is also home to 25 parks and a 7,200-square-foot skate park. Many different cuisines can be found in Bayonne – Café Bello, El Aquila Dorada, Broadway Diner and many others.
