Sandy saltwater beaches, picnic and play areas, great views all in the same place
Come to play, and stay for the spectacular sunsets, at Conimicut Point, a peaceful setting with stunning water views. This scenic waterfront park’s sandy saltwater beaches are ideal for families, fishing folk and fun-seekers of all ages. It’s a great place to launch a canoe or kayak, too. There’s a playground area with swings, a slide and climbing structures, and there are picnic tables and benches. The point is popular with bird-watchers and sunset photographers, and it’s the best vantage point to see the Conimicut Lighthouse, still standing as a navigation aid at the head of the Providence River. The 58-foot structure, still flashing its light every 2 1/2 seconds, is on the National Register of Historic Places.
