Wonderful experience and part of our history
Great views from here
Cute little aquarium too.
It was a bummer the inside was closed but still a beautiful view of the bay.
Beautiful during every season and weather condition
great view n good fishing
Nice place to hang out whole day on the cliff during summer days
Breathtaking landmark with some very interesting history!
One of the most gorgeous places I've ever seen a sunset in my life
Great experience! Took a walk around the museum and learned some great info! Got our Lighthouse passport stamped and enjoyed the roaring ocean views! Amazing!
Beautrful example of new england coastline
Great place
Beautiful place! very informative Museum just wish I'd gotten there sooner so I could have taken more time In the museum
There's a meadow you can lay down and watch the ocean, or rocks where you can sit and watch the ocean. Toilets are clean.
My favorite place in RI...perfect for a damily picnic, or just exploring the waterfront look8ng for shells...definatly a must-see destination in Rhode Island
One of my favorite places in the whole world, so beautiful.
Perfect day for a stroll and some history. Great job of restoring the structures. People were fishing of the rocks, relaxing in chairs, and simply enjoying the sights and sounds of the land and the lighthouse.
Very informative and well maintained!
Nice historical place and well worth the visit. There's not a lot here, just a piece of New England history. Be sure to go when the museum is open.
Superb location. Secluded and serene. Beautiful sea view. Drive here is again amazing.
Always great to visit here. Rock hopping, tidepools with critters and great views.
Got lucky and went on a day when the tower was open. Beautiful views and great place to picnic and hike
Went here the other night and surprised my girlfriend of 2 year with a ring she said yes and it'll be a night we will never forget definitely going back
One of my favorite places in Rhode Island. Gorgeous park with beautiful shore views built around an historic lighthouse.
Great place to visit.
A wonderful place to visit for the whole family.
Awesome, kids loved climbing rocks.
My review is more about Beavertail State Park than the museum there. I loved hiking along this beach park - there are rocks, huge rocks, all along the cost line on either side of the beautiful lighthouse there, and they are GREAT for hiking! I've also had a few picnics out on the rocks along the coast of the park. I've seen people painting, set up on the rocks; there are some great photography opportunities here; and, as I mentioned previously, some great hiking to be had here! I love this park! Beware of the wind though! It's almost always very windy at this park because of ocean coastline along a semi-peninsula. The horn for the lighthouse can also be deafening at times, but if you're there for hiking, then the noise is far enough away to not bother you, depending on where you are in relation to the lighthouse. I've also see tons of sailboats, and even a few tall ships all along the ocean waters surrounding the park. The lighthouse museum is fairly nice and curator is a wonderfully kind old man, who is always willing to spend the time answer any questions you might have, or to tell the history of the Beavertail Lighthouse. There is also a small aquarium in the building next to the lighthouse that houses many of the different species that you can find living naturally in and around the water surrounding the lighthouse and park. The whole place is really just a wonderful place to visit and I highly recommend it!
This lighthouse has lots of history in it. It has 49 steps and then step out to the balcony. It was nice and breezy there. Beautiful view as well. Would not recommend children under 4 or 5. You can not carry a child or a baby in it.
Beautiful seashore park.
My favorite place!!
Beautiful coast line! Great for photos!
Wonderful and very informative little museum
Such a beautiful spot. The lighthouse museum was closed which would have been better, but we all had fun walking around. A must see.
Informative and friendly guide
Really one of the most striking views. I like Newport, and I like some of the parks further up the bay. This view, though, really gives a sense of the state. I also like the museum. It makes me want to see some other lighthouses in the state. And, finally, the small aquarium to the side of the museum is really fun.
I will probably go back for a few more visits, Rhode Island is so beautiful.
Great views, great history and the docents really are helpful!!
Gorgeous place in RI!! The place is so windy and wasn't very crowded. So serene and well maintained.
Beautiful spot no matter the time of year!!
Awesome views! Never disappointed after photographing
Lighthouse itself wasn't spectacular, but the waterfront views were amazing. Loved being able to climb down the rocks near the water.
Amazing view....but it was closed. The shore was nice.
One of my favorite places on the planet, my whole family loves it here, across three generations. Definitely a Must See! The museum is informative and interactive. ❤️
I was a little disappointed that you can't go in the light house but I got over it pretty quick when I saw the waves crashing on the rocks at high tide! So beautiful! And there's a nice little free aquarium that my kids enjoyed. And there's bathrooms. Always a plus.
Great place to visit! Very scenic. I happened to visit on a day where they let visitors climb the tower. Awesome experience!
Awesome place to take in the sites of Rhode Island. The views are spectacular and the mini aquarium is a nice touch. There are bathrooms on site as well
Of all the local historical attractions in Jamestown, if you are only going to visit one then this is the one to visit. It was closed when I visited but, it was still more interesting than the others. Nice views and some nice oceanside areas to explore. Seems a popular destination for school field trips.
Free to get in but the stairway to the top of the lighthouse was closed, that was a little disappointing.
This landmark is fabulous any time of year. It is free to stroll the around and marvel at its beauty.
Great family day! Beautiful park type area as well. Pack a lunch and stay the day
Beautiful location, full of history.
It's always nice to learn something new about a place you've been going to for years. I just wish they would open the top of the lighthouse more often.
There's a small aquarium there and beautiful views of the ocean . When stress is too much, I like to drive up there, just sit there and everything will feel so much better
Stunning views historical buildings, cliffs, nice ocean scenery
Awesome place,great to visit. Ocean view amazing
Beautiful view nice people
I love this place. Great museum. Beautiful scenery. Folks out fishing.
Very interesting, the staff are very helpful and knowledgeable. Offering lots of information. Lovely to visit along with a walk by the sea
Small, but, very detailed and the people who are there are nice and understanding towards lil one's. I think older people and young adults would enjoy the insides there while the grounds are for everyone that wants an adventure or to just take the sites in.
Great state park. Clean and beautiful views
The best place and Uuuf beautiful
Liked the cliffs. Nice little lighthouse. Did not went inside museum.
Well laid out, and clean. The aquarium was neat. Definately, worth a visit.
The oldest lighthouse in RI and the 3rd oldest in the U.S. Lots of history!
I rate this lighthouse a 4 simply because of its unique style for New England lighthouses. Most are white & tubular. This is a stone lighthouse brownish in color & rectangular in shape. It's fairly easy to get to, with free parking. Some of your better photos will be taken from the rocks. I believe there is a small aquarium on the grounds due to signs I saw. I didn't have much time to spend so I didn't get to look around as much as I would've liked to.
Very beautiful views on the cliffs! We spent hours walking on the rocks and enjoying the views. Very quiet place. Cute little lighthouse with a free museum of it's history inside. Public restrooms are available outside of the lighthouse. The grounds are large and there is plenty of areas for sitting, having a picnic, sun bathing, ect.
Absolutely breathtaking views, and wonderful history.
Historic lighthouse from 1856 with fantastic artifacts and a five-room museum with amazing information on all the lighthouses of Narragansett Bay and Rhode Island 300 year Maritime history.
Beautiful scenery the waves crashing over the rocks so soothing
Breathtaking. Historic. Just pwrfect
I grew up here in Jamestown. So, yes, i have a bias. This is one of the most photogenic places on the planet. Passing nearby ocean storms/hurricanes make this one the best places to see the waves break on the rocks. It is also a great place for shore fishing where you can catch some fair sized ocean fish without a boat. On a very clear day you can see the cliffs of Block Island, nearly 20 miles away.
Another stunning location on Rhode Island's southern coast. Located in Beavertail State park. Great location for picnicking, sun bathing, kite flying, cast fishing, photography, hiking, jogging, sightseeing, and surf watch. Beware of ticks, and drop offs on the rocks. Be aware the rocks are slippery. Hold onto your kids and over confident teens.
Plenty of parking. Bring a picnic and enjoy the views. Plenty of paths to the water from various parking areas.
What a cool place! Very scenic. Friendly staff at gift shop. Will go again.
A beautiful lighthouse.
Great View be careful on the rocks it could be dangerous
Great place to sit and enjoy the waves
Absolutely stunning
Breath taking spot. Lovely for a picnic if you are are with someone or a nice me spot for chilling out and meditating.
This is a beautiful well-kept park with a historical lighthouse, museum and small aquarium. The aquarium is what made me hesitate to give this a five star rewiew - there is a large turtle housed there called Archie and when we visited he not only looked hungry but his tank was small, dirty and - in my mind - not adequate. Can whoever is in charge of the budget please inmprove this turtle's quality of life by buying him a new bigger tank?!? Or give him to an owner who will do this for him.
Learn a bit of history of the Beavertail Lighthouse and lighthouses in general at this small nice museum. Don't miss the small shed behind the main Museum which has a display dealing with Lighthouse lenses. A great place to have a picnic and look at Narragansett Bay and the ocean.
Absolutely beautiful! This was one of our favorite stops on our tour around New York, Massachusetts, Rhode island, and Connecticut! The road Google took us on was pathetically rough through Newport. But the 33 foot RV traveled and parked nicely at Beavertail State Park! I will be going back!
One of the nicer Lighthouses in Rhode Island that you can actually tour inside and learn about its history and see old and new artifacts. There's a gift shop and volunteers/workers who explain some of the items on display. There are outdoor bathrooms for your convenience.
A beautiful place quietly tucked away in Rhode Island. One of my favorite spots in RI. Spectacular view with phenomenal natural setting for great pictures.
Very nice place
Favorite place on earth!
Very interesting information about rhode island lighthouses and shipwreaks.
Beautiful serene park
Great way to relax and listen to the waves
Beautiful view but a really, really tough place to find parking.
Cold out but was a beautiful place to go
Beautiful views and lighthouse!
Just amazing for a day out...
Beautiful place to walk around and sit down and watch the waves. There's also a very informative museum on site.
Great fish and other sea life with a great view of the ocean and the lighthouse!
Serene and beautiful
Just enough people, normal nice people no riff raff.
Nice place to visit. No swimming - very rocky.
My go-to place to get away either on my own or with the family. I can lay out and tan my son can play on the rocks we can check out some ocean life and have a restful day. I didn't even mention the gorgeous views!
This is a working lighthouse with a museum, gift shop, and small aquarium. The sights are beautiful and there are plenty of rocks for agile folk who want to do some treasure hunting. Composting potties with ramps are available and easily accessible, out in front of the lighthouse.
Beautiful scenic views. Not for swimming.
Beautiful place to relax and enjoy the beautiful views.
Beautiful views no.matter the weather. Nice peaceful place for a walk.
My favorite place to go and center.
I always look forward to going here, you must have your camera. Its a different experience than going to the beach no sand, less ppl. Beautiful rocks and cliffs formed with amazing shapes and designs formed from the oceans tides. It has a historical Museum showing awesome history about all the lighthouses and shipwrecks, restaurant. Wheelchair access. For all ages. My parents were able to sit on top of the cliffs and enjoy seeing the ocean ports and open sea. Bring a chair a book sit and tan have a picnic.But if you're a rock climber like me you will love that the most.! Bring your camera.
This is my all time favorite place to go and unwind.
Simply Beautiful!
Very nice to visit especially if you like lighthouses.
This is a very interesting museum that not only explains the how a lighthouse works, but also has a focus on the families that have lived there over the years. I really like how they bring the history to life. Another favorite exhibit is the room about shipwrecks. Informative and educational.
A great place to view the ocean, and especially if you like the waves breaking on a rocky coastline.
Great and educational place.
A nice place to visit with the family. The lighthouse history is amazing and the people very knowledgeable.
Beautiful can't wait to go again, so peaceful place!
It was nice seeing kne if the oldest lighthouses in the nation...the kids loved the little aquarium
Great tour and amazing view! 3rd lighthouse in the Americas....who knew?
I like this place during spring and summer. Best time for me yo visit is after winter time when weather is starting to get warm. There is park to walk. You can find picnic tables. If you enjoy scenic views for good pictures this is a good place.
Always a great place to visit.
Very interesting
Absolutely beautiful and parking is free restrooms available too
Great views, very windy..
Very nice beach and good place for enjoying quality time
Best value in New England as far as aquariums go
It's a great place to have a picnic or just read and relax
Great place! Beautiful location, nice little museum. But be advised that the tower is only open sporadically, and primarily on weekends.
Very peaceful and relaxing
A quick little museum in a very scenic area. Great for children!
my favorite spot in RI
Very educational. Will go back.
A Very Enjoyable Experience. Toured the Lighthouse (Climbed to the Top) Waited About a Half Hour to Take the "Tour" Terrific View and the Museum (Nice Historical Overview) Can't Beat It for a Five Dollar Donation.
This has got to be one of the most scenic spots in Rhode Island! The lighthouse and the rocky shoreline is so beautiful as are the views of the bay. There is a small set of steps that lead you down to the water's edge where you can look back and get a great view of the lighthouse up above. There is a decent amount of parking but try to arrive early since this place will fill up quickly on a good day. Once you are here you will easily see why:). The museum is extremely informational and full of local history. There are interesting exhibits and factoids throughout which really give you a glimpse into the past when this light was constructed. So put Beavertail on the top of your list if you are in Newport or any of the surrounding areas. It's just another example of this state's breathtaking beauty! You will not be disappointed!
Lots of knowledge here very interesting
Situated at the end of the island, you got some incredible views, especially on a nice evening watching the sun go down from parking lot 3
A beautiful little piece of New England
This place is absolutely beautiful. Great place to walk and take in the scenery with family or alone!
Gail was the best guide ever!!! Beautiful spot and extremely interesting
Great for the kids and family. The lighthouse offers a small museum employee with knowledgeable staff. The views from the top are amazing.
Light house in nature's lap...loved it.
beautiful view, not for those who do not like spiral stairs or close spaces
It's beaver tail!!! It's awesome
Beautiful area! Knowledgeable people working in the lighthouse, and it's free!
Awesome views of the bay
Beautiful place, interesting exhibits, fun small aquarium, cute little gift shop.
BEYOND beautiful! Loved every second. Fun museum with interactive screens to pick different videos, and easily accessible.
One of the oldest lighthouses on the East Coast a little Museum
Strange being in Newport when Aquidneck Island was my hometown. Everything seems so different but it was a nice visit today. Also beavertail. Nice view from the top of the lighthouse :-)
Beautiful, perfect new England setting
Beuatiful place with small aquarium for the kids!
My favorite place, in RI. Amazing views, and relaxing to the sounds of crashing waves
My favorite RI place
Really great definitely worth a look, the museum was nice and pretty big. They have a seasonal aquarium which was really pretty awesome. And it's nice to walk around and take in the views
This place was very cool, lots of history and neat things to see. Didnt take long at all to go through so it was the perfect add on to our day!
Top five places to visit in Rhode Island. Phenomenal views all around of the water and the bay. Plenty of room to go for a walk. The rock formations around here just amazing. Perfect for picnics. Clean bathrooms.
Just stunning.... The sea put on quite the spectacle in the midst of the storm
This is 1 of my favorite places. Ocean view is amazing, such peaceful place.
I couldn't give it 5 stars cause we went on a day they were closed...completely our fault but it is a beautiful place and is worth the trip just to see
Very nice little and free museum with small aquarium area.
