Please note that Easton's Beach has seaweed that travels the beach with the tides. After heavy rainstorms, many beaches in Newport may be closed. Middletown's Beaches will be open and are 1/2 to 1 mile away.
Easton's '1st' beach and many other RI beaches have red seaweed that travels up and down the beach with the tides. It is not 'Red Tide'. At the beach in front of my house, after heavy rainstorms, they advise not to swim or it may be closed due to storm drain runoff. If the beach is closed, Middletown's Sachuest beach will be open and I will reimburse for parking.
