Prudence Island is remote and quiet. You can take a ferry (with limited seating) to reach it, and once you get there you can explore the lighthouse, hike along several trails and enjoy an amazing view. Be warned, there are very few businesses on the island and it'll feel mostly like a deserted island.
As the state's largest and most magnificent recreational area, great hiking trails are not only diverse, but also magical. The whopping 14,000 forested acres have dozens of trail options. I suggest exploring them all!
This secluded beach is located off South Shore Road in Little Compton. This stunning area is part of a beautiful small nature preserve. Be warned that this beach does not have parking and does not offer amenities. It is however a comfortable walking distance away from South Shore Beach where you can park.
