Splash pads in Newport, Rhode Island

Easton's Beach (locally just First Beach) is the Newport summer power play and the spray feature is right at the bath house, perfect for rinsing off salt and sand. The Atlantic surf, Cliff Walk access, and the famous carousel are all within walking distance. Newport Parks runs the spray mid-June through Labor Day, daytime, weather dependent. Parking is the gotcha: $30+ on summer weekends for nonresidents. Restrooms and showers in the bath house, snack stands on the boardwalk, and the carousel ride is the legally required end-of-day move. Stroller-easy boardwalk and the Cliff Walk start is right there for a sunset stroll.
