The Watch Hill beach is undoubtedly a breathtaking sight to behold and is considered the most stunning beach in the state. The beach boasts of rolling dunes adorned with the sweet fragrance of beach roses and is surrounded by crystal-clear blue waters. The cherry on top of this paradise is the Napatree point conservation area, which adds to the beach's charm. During summers, visitors may have to pay for parking or walk a little, but the experience is worth every penny spent on this ocean state gem.

Charlestown Beach
10 Lila Anderson

This location is stunning. I had hoped to witness the sunset from the bridge before the beach, but unfortunately, the clouds obstructed the view. Despite this, the beach was a sight to behold. There were many visitors with their jeeps and SUVs, and a group of people gathered around a lit fire pit while others enjoyed a picnic. Overall, this was one of the most beautiful beaches I have ever visited. I've included some pictures of the bridge where the sunset can be seen at its finest.

Esker Point Beach
