Review & FAQ:
Located on Atlantic Drive near Westerly in Rhode Island, Misquamicut State Beach is a favorite summer hang-out for both visitors and Rhode Island locals.
The beach offers useful facilities such as a large parking area that can accommodate over 2,000 cars, a bathing pavilion and shade areas, a lifeguard (seasonal), and food concessions. The beach is over half a mile long, offering great beach walks especially at sunset.
You can watch or join the surfers (Misquamicut has some pretty good surfing conditions) or enjoy relaxing in the sun, swimming, or body boarding. For some added fun you can take the children to enjoy the slides at the nearby Water Wizz Water Park.
