If you're a birdwatcher this is a great place to see all kinds of shorebirds and migrants in the fall. More

My wife and I visited Napatree Point in late April. We enjoyed a very nice stroll down the extensive beach. Only a couple of stores were open so don't bother going there for shopping early in the season. More

But this is the best beach in RI. No frills or facilities and the parking is very limited and expensive. It is a long hick to the beach, but once there it was worth the journey. not a beach for surfing or kids. This is the quiet beach for long walks and relaxation. So please don't tell anyone! More

This is a beautiful beach area. You can see Long Island in the distance as well as the Watch Hill Lighthouse. Napatree Point used to be full of waterfront homes before the devastating hurricane wiped them out decades ago. Today it is a gorgeous stretch of preserved land with a fabulous sandy beach. It is in the village of Watch... More

Fantastic beach to walk. Beautiful all around. The fort ruins are fun to explore and views are outstanding. One of the best beaches in the area, by far. 1.5 miles of splendor. More

The beach is beautiful but the beach patrol are not. I was written a summons for having my dog swimming in the water with me not going on the beach, while I washed my boat. The Napatree Conservancey women call a police to come give me $25 summons then claimed a board member saw the dog swimming off the boat... More

Napatree Beach is a lovely spot for tourists as well as those who live in town. The townspeople and shopkeepers are wonderful. I went in March and some stores were closed, but the real estate agent was very pleasant and helped me find a restaurant. She also told me about the remodeled Ocean House, which sounds like an awesome resort.... More
