Rhode Island Coastal

Travel Guide

The Point Judith Light is located on the west side of the entrance to Narragansett Bay, Rhode Island as well as the north side of the eastern entrance to Block Island Sound. The confluence of two waterways make this area busy with water traffic and the waters around Point Judith are very cold and dangerous. 
The site is very picturesque with plenty of locations to enjoy the seascape and take photos. The grounds are open to the public and there is enough parking space but the lighthouse itself has restricted accessibility since is still an active Coast Guard Station.

I am torn by this review. The location is awesome. The hotel is not good. Needs painting, a deep cleaning. We had several issues with the toilet during our stay. Staff was very accommodating and friendly.
