Learning in Prospect Park isn’t just for kids - there’s a wealth of great programs for everyone to enjoy, and most of them don’t cost a thing.  Public programs at Prospect Park allow visitors to explore nature in Brooklyn’s flagship Park, home to the borough’s only freshwater lake, its last natural forest, and the nation’s first urban Audubon Center.

Electric Boat Tours
Electric boat tours on the Independence begin at the Prospect Park Audubon Center and explore the Lullwater, a placid waterway that meanders through shady woodlands and under historic bridges. After gliding gently along, you’ll emerge into the wide open vista of the Park’s beautiful 60-acre Lake. Click here for more information.


Twilight Tours
On summer Thursdays, Twilight Tours allow visitors to join a wine-and-cheese reception, followed by an exploration of the Park's Lullwater and Lake during summer's most beautiful hours. Click here for more information.
