Tips from locals
Eest Beach is a 3 mile barrier beach bordering the Charlestown Ninigret conservation area. Being uniquely situated between a saltwater pond and the ocean, and being one of the least developed of the state makes East Beach one of RI’s spectacular sea side treasures. Parking is limited, so we would suggest arriving early.
WATCH HILL BEACH (2.5 miles from cottage) Great beach for the whole family. There are several pay lots, but on the weekend you need to get there early because they do fill up. Beach access to east beach is free. Good waves and views of the mansions and light house. Sand is soft, no rocks.
My favorite beach! Taylor Swift has the big house on the end so I guess she's a fan too
