If you’re looking for a great beach day in Rhode Island, it’s tempting to head straight to one of the popular spots right on the Atlantic. The white sand and tumbling waves at these beaches are always a big draw for both locals and tourists alike. But not far from those coastal hotspots is a lesser-known inland beach with clear waters that offers something a little different than the big-name locales. Ninigret Park is home to Little Nini Pond and may be as close to the Carribean (in a small-scale way) as you can find in New England. You won’t find a better way – or place – to spend a warm day than at this hidden beach in Charlestown, Rhode Island.
