General Boating Info
 Newport's famous deep water harbor hosted the America's Cup for many years and its waters have been drawing people to its shores since the 1600's. Although Newport is best-known as a sailing center, the ocean and surrounding areas of the island it inhabits (Aquidneck Island) offer the outdoor enthusiast many options to explore. Middletown, Newport's next door neighbor, is home to beautiful beaches, unspoiled nature centers and wildlife sanctuaries. Close to shore, many visitors are amazed at the variety of marine creatures swimming just under the surface. During the summer months, the Gulf Stream brings tropical fish our way, and it is not uncommon to see these brightly-colored fish swimming around in the 70+° waters off Newport's shores.
Newport's climate is unusual for New England and very temperate due to the relatively consistent ocean temperatures from day to day. Because of this ocean effect, you can expect cooler than average temperatures in late spring and warmer than average temperatures from September until Christmas, extending our sailing & boating season well into October most years. And for the adventurous, "frostbiters" can be seen out on the water all winter braving the cold for the love of sailing.
