Newport Rhode Island Area Beaches

Public Beaches

Newport, RI is known for its many beautiful and unspoiled fine sand beaches and surrounding nature areas. Three of the area's beaches lie in a row, separated by peninsulas of land and rock that jut out into the sea. As a result, many local people refer to the beaches as 1st, 2nd and 3rd. They are noted below to help you get to the right beach when you're here!
