  There's an asphalt trail that follows the shoreline and was great for a quick run. The winds coming off the water were intense, though, so dress accordingly!

  Fort Adams is a great place in the spring time, its very scenic. You'll find picturesque views views of sailboats dotting Narragansett Bay as well as the Newport Bridge reaching across it.

  Hubby and I did this tour on a warm October afternoon and we thoroughly enjoyed it. As a local, I had not been in the fort part in years and I found the information terrific....I guess I take this plave for granted because I have lived here for so long! Very nice tour and a very scenic area to spend a few hours on a nice day!

  Nice 2 mile walking or jogging loop. Free calm, clear beach (no dogs allowed). Bring a lawn chair and watch the sailboats. Nice place to launch your kayak to tour around the harbor.

  This was the perfect spot to come and see but also walk around and enjoy the water. Nice sunset views with benches in the right spot. Would be a great place to picnic. I also heard a rumor about parking there in the summer and ferrying to town for free? Maybe call and check that out because parking in Newport is a nightmare!

  I loved this fort and it was the first I have ever been to. Jack was so informative and with only a few people on the tour it was perfect to get information about the history of the fort. I loved the tunnels and the hibernating bats. I think that it is sad that back in the 50's people destroyed much of the forts interior. I am not someone that would usually like this sort of thing and I loved it. The views are perfect! Dress warm though!

  Well, obviously it's historic, but it really is amazing and worth a visit. And the grounds staff really knew their historic details.

  This was a really nice change from the mansions. Our tour guide was very personable and informed, offering a comprehensive tour of the grounds while explaining the history and some other details. Even as someone who is not entirely intrigued by military related topics, this was very enjoyable and on a nice day I would highly recommend it. the tour lasted about an hour and 15 minutes and is mostly outside with some stops inside the fort walls. The highlight was absolutely a chance to walk through some of the listening tunnels - really cool expereince.

  Really great location for a folk concert and relaxing afternoon! The fort backdrop and island feel was a unique experience. It would be hard to complain about the surroundings!

  靠着大西洋的一个公园 也是之前和英军打仗的一个要塞 说是公园 其实就是一片挺大的绿地 可以登上要塞远眺 天气好的时候应该很漂亮
