Review:
As its name suggests, Middletown is located right in the middle of Aquidneck Island in Newport Country between Portsmouth in the north and Newport in the south. Middletown dates back to 1743, and history enthusiasts can learn all about the pioneer days by visiting the headquarters of the Middletown Historic Society in the 1875 Paradise School building.
Other historic landmarks you can tour include Boyd’s Eight-Vane Wind Grist Mill, Witherbee School, and the Middletown War Veterans Memorial Park.
You can go swimming, surfing, and castle building on Sachuest Beach (aka Second Beach) or head to Third Beach where you can go boating, fishing, and kayaking.
