Millington Waterfront Park is a great place for those who want to explore the Upper Chester River. There is a small dock for launching kayaks that is only accessible during high tide and a gravel walkway that can also be used for launching at any tide. Paddlers can head upstream through a forested cover and reach the headwaters of the Chester or paddle downstream to reach wider parts of the river. Paddlers are encouraged to come during high tide as the river is very narrow and shallow at this point. The park has a small trail loop that is great for bird watching. There is a small picnic area under the shade of some trees. Powerboats can not be launched from this site. Swimming is not allowed. A gravel parking lot is available with a portable toilet.
