Review:

Joseph Sylvia State Beach is one of the most famous beaches around New England, particularly for families. This is because it has naturally generated marine sediment that forms slopes, so even though there are deep water areas, there are also lots of patches with shallow water suitable for younglings.

The waves are small and calm, so swimming is very pleasant in these waters. The beach sand is beautiful and there are lots of parking spaces. You can also have a go at harvesting shellfish, but you will need a town permit for that. There is also plenty of space for strolling along the shoreline.
