Narragansett Beach Travel Tips

By Travel Expert: Sarah White

  • Explore three-mile-long East Beach State Beach, an undeveloped barrier beach not far from the Ninigret Conservation Area.
  • Bring your board to Ninigret Pond, famous among windsurfers for its steady ocean breeze.
  • Watch America's Cup yacht races from Fort Wetherill State Park, which overlooks Newport Harbor and the East Passage of Narragansett Bay.
  • Hike fifty-foot-high granite outcroppings, bluffs, and coves at Wetherill State Park, also a major destination for New England-based scuba clubs.
  • Search for yellowfin, bluefin, and striped bass along with thousands of anglers who port here each year.
  • The 42-foot fishing trawler Explorer is outfitted for shark-cage dives, multi-day outings to Montauk and Nantucket, and local shipwreck excursions.
