The Scene
You can come to Newport for the mansions and the shopping, and even the scenery, but the real action takes place down at Easton Beach. The biggest and most popular stretch of sand in Newport, Easton's accessibility and convenience make it a must do for sunbathing, bodysurfing and people watching.There are beach accessories available for rent and a concession stand that sells everything from hot dogs to ice cream.
Features
If you're shy about the water (red seaweed often makes swimming during low tide an itchy proposition), fear not. There's a carousel, a marine life exploration center and a skateboard park all on the premises.
