The Wellesley Island State Park is a great all-around park for outdoor activity.  There are a lot of camp sites, biking along the trails, fishing, hiking and equipment rentals.  In addition, its the home to Minna Anthony Common Nature Center.

What I liked about hiking the “Round-the-Peninsula” trail is that it is comprised of several shorter trails: “Eel Bay”, “The Narrows”, “South Bay” and “East Bay” trails.  Each has it’s own unique attributes.  A few pictures from along the trail are featured below.
