Visit the Lighthouse

One highlight of this park besides its beauty is the Beavertail Lighthouse. This scenic lighthouse is the third oldest lighthouse to be built in Colonial America. This beautiful lighthouse is loved by many.

Go for a Hike

Beavertail State Park has hiking trails with amazing views! The hiking trails aren't difficult, but the views are absolutely gorgeous! You can choose to stay on the grass trails, or you can go down closer to the water to walk along the rocky coast.

Go Fishing

Another great thing to do here is to go fishing! Beavertail State Park has some of the best saltwater fishing in the area. Some fish you can expect to catch here are stripers and bluefish, especially during the heat of the summer.

Another great thing to do here is to go bird watching. You can enjoy watching the coastal birds of Rhode Island as you walk along the shoreline. Some birds I've seen here are Cormorants, Black Scoters, Harlequin Ducks, Purple Sandpipers, and of course, Sea Gulls.

Watch the  Sunset

What's better than watching a sunset by the water? You can enjoy the sunset sitting on the rocky shoreline, or you can watch it right from your car in the parking lot!

This Rhode Island state park has so much to offer! Whether you're into history, nature, fishing, or wildlife, there's really something for everyone to enjoy at this beautiful park!
