The most obvious reason you're on a vacation like this is to enjoy some of the most beautiful water that New England has to offer. And you will not be disappointed! Rhode Island beaches are some of the best around. The sand is silky smooth at the Dunes Beach, where you will provided a pass to enjoy every day. Parking is close to the water and is readily available. The water is crystal clear and the jetty is great for kids to catch crabs and explore what the ocean has to offer. What most people miss is what you'll have direct walking access to. The salt pond! This is a habitat that cannot be described. It has to be experienced.
Right down the street from the house, you can walk in to a crystal clear salt water fed pond that flushes daily with the ocean tides. It is great for relaxing on the sand bars at low tide, fishing for striped bass or fluke & flounder, kayaking, snorkeling & diving, or getting a great appetizer of clams on the half shell.
