Went to Rocky Point State Park on New Years Day. Snow covered the ground and I got to tick off a bucket list item of seeing sand and snow mix on the beach. There’s a very nice pier and massive arch (other reviews have good photos, so no need to include here). I really liked several history signs that describe the interesting & storied past of this park. At one time an amusement park; as one time filled with cottages - who knew! My favorite part was a little train through the woods near the beach. Quite magical with the snow!! And good sledding down the singular hill that is here.

This is a great waterfront state park and especially nostalgic if like me, you grew up going to Rocky Point amusement park. I love that they have kept some of the items from the amusement park. The fishing pier is also a beautiful way to enjoy the waterfront. Ample free parking. Such a fun pit stop with some extra time on my way to the PVD airport.

Beautiful park on the Narragansett Bay. There are several fairly detailed signs on the history of Rocky Point Amusement Park. You can still see some of the old attractions around the park, as well as go out on the pier for some fishing. There are at least 3 good "beaches" at the park, one of which is right off the path, while the others are a bit more hidden along the path in various locations. I stopped here while on vacation in order to activate the "Parks on the Air Park" (US-2879)for amateur (ham) radio.

We love Rocky Point and go there frequently. The paved walking trail is a lovely combination of ocean views and waterfront bushes and flowers. The beach is true to its name so we always bring water shoes with good soles. The waves are never rough so it's a nice place for children. I enjoyed reading all the historical markers and imagining this magical place in its heyday. It's also nice to stand on the new pier and feel the sea breeze with water all around you.

Spacious with plenty of parking (seriously…so much parking). Dog friendly, there’s picnic tables/covered spots, rocks to hang out, a pier. It’s a great place to watch the sunset. Plenty of grassy space too. Plus handicapped parking down the hill/close to the water!
