Hampton Park is one of the City of Charleston’s largest parks. It has the most extensive floral displays of any park in the city. An old rose collection and seasonal displays are planted by the staff and volunteers caring for the park. This neighborhood park has a rich history. This park is home to many activities year round. Weddings, family reunions and many Frisbee games are but a few of the diverse activities seen in this park.

Hampton Park is one of the few City of Charleston parks with restrooms and on-site parking.
