On the beach, you can rent beach chairs, cabanas, surfboards, boogie boards, and umbrellas. There’s also a children’s playground for when the kids need a break from the water, and a beach store with souvenirs, beachwear, and accessories. You can also head to the Snack Bar for the famous twin lobster rolls.
For a break from the sun, the Save The Bay Exploration Center and Aquarium holds some 14 exhibits and more than 140 species of Narragansett Bay sea life. While the beach is an attraction in its own right, it also serves as the starting point of the scenic Newport Cliff Walk, which you can explore independently or with the help of an app-led tour.
