"Connecticut's largest public beach park has everything you'd expect from a waterfront park — miles of shoreline for swimming and sunbathing, walking trails, picnic areas, and a campground with 550 grassy campsites. Just keep in mind that camping is only available in the summer months (usually Memorial Day through mid-October). If you're hitting the beach from your RV, the campground also has electric and water hookups." - Travel + Leisure Editors
