We visited Colt State Park on 7/3/2022. It was the Independence Day eve and it was fully packed with people out in son for picnic and get together. A beautiful summer day in the park which is nicely located at ocean / water front - who doesn’t want to be there. We also did a small family picnic outside at this place on a picnic table. There were ample green space areas out of some were camping pre booked site areas which were all full and park staff was present at those location entrance. There were ample opportunity for biking and 7 y.o fully utilized this opportunity. He couldn’t find any beach 🏖 at the area where we walked, that was near to fishing pier. But the long side walk next to ocean for walking/biking 🚶♀️ provides a decent experience if you have a patience to sit and relax. Update - 6/1/2024- returned back for a casual evening picnic with family and everybody just loved it. The 8 month old enjoyed her first 🌅 sunset view

What a gem! This lovely oasis tucked in Bristol, Rhode Island, offers serene beauty and playspace for everyone. Whether you enjoy boating or other seawater sports, wading in the ocean, hiking beachside, through the moors and hillsides, or over stone bridges across marshes, you'll find nooks and crannies to delight you. Perhaps you want to take a leisurely bike ride and take it ALL in. Colt has you covered. Don't stop at you and your partner (though we find it a romantic spot), you have the option of bringing all your friends to cookout and party by reserving your own field lot. If you need to ask, there are restroom options to boot. Please be kind and pick up after yourselves. Most people do! Run, don't walk to this buccolic spot, and when you get there, do both!
