Waterford Beach can be accessed by a grapevine covered path from the neighborhood. You can also walk to Harkness State Park from Waterford beach and Eugene O’Neill Theater. There is also a small boat launch right around the corner to launch your kayaks.

Short drive to downtown for shopping, restaurants, bars, and fairies to Block Island, fishers Island, or Long Island. Niantic offers a boardwalk, beaches, shopping and dining, and bike rentals.
