Napatree Point Conservation Area

- about a 4 mile out and back walk along the shoreline with views of Watch Hill Point Lighthouse - Great for birdwatching and dog walking, bags are provided at the entrance - Parking is private during the summer at the trail entrance but you can park in front of the shops year round (about a 1 minute walk from the trail entrance). Parking at the trail is open during the offseason. - No bathrooms - I saw a seal off shore, they migrate north during the fall so that’s the best time of the year to see them in RI

Beautiful location, you can park the boats on one side where it's calmer. Walk over the hill to the ocean side. Very clean beach, located near Castle Hill. Great walking beach I.

I visited Napatree Conservation Point on a sunny May day and had a wonderful experience. The area offers a scenic hike of about 4–6 miles along the beach, making it perfect for nature lovers. The beach itself is beautiful, clean, and swimmable. There’s a free public restroom available, and a shower facility for $5, which is convenient after a swim or hike. It seems like an ideal picnic spot, especially in the late summer months. Nearby, there are charming craft shops, ice cream parlors, and beachy clothing boutiques that add to the relaxed, coastal vibe. I also spotted some rare birds while exploring, which was a delightful bonus. A great spot for a peaceful day out by the sea! There was two hour free parking until May 31.

Loved every part of this beautiful place. Fortunate to be able to anchor amd paddle board to the beach for a sunrise stroll. Just gorgeous

Heard that it was a great hidden gem, so wanted to check it out. It was indeed beautiful, but the setup is far from ideal. Parking for the beach is rough, either street parking that has a 2 hour limit and is a 10 minute walk to the beach (with a steep, sandy hill), or a lot that cost $50 and is a 15 minute walk with a steep, sandy hill. Didn’t see bathrooms. So if you’re a resident or staying locally, great beach. If you’re a day-tripper, just drive the extra 10 minutes over to Misquamicut.

It is beautiful here. Lovely long walk on the windswept beach.

It's a lovely area and beautiful stretch of beach BUT there is a limit on when dogs are allowed, even leashed, during peak times they will NOT 🚫 allow any dogs from 8am-6pm. Please note this.

Beautiful nice private beach and boat launch. Many nice small stores and restaurants.
