Kennedy Library to Castle Island, South Boston
Route: Follow pedestrian path from Columbia Point near the Kennedy Library along Carson Beach to Castle Island and Fort Independence.
The paved path curves gently along the water's edge and affords views to the Boston Harbor Islands - and in the morning and evening (especially during the week), it's fairly quiet, populated by locals enjoying a workout or just watching the water from a bench, picnic table, or gazebo that encourages lingering.
