Things to do in Warwick

One of Rhode Island's biggest draws is its scenic coastline dotted with sandy bays, rocky cliffs and historic lighthouses. Warwick puts you within striking distance of Goddard Memorial State Park, which is laced with nature trails popular with hikers and horseback riders. You can also hit the beach or tee off at the park’s nine-hole public golf course.

For a glimpse at Rhode Island's maritime past, head to the Warwick Neck Lighthouse. The historic lighthouse was built in 1827 to protect the boats that cruise to nearby towns like Prudence Island and Newport.

Warwick is brimming with New England charm and there's no better place to discover its pioneer past than the Clouds Hill Victorian House Museum. It was built in 1872 and has been beautifully restored to its original condition. You can also check out the Steamship Historical Society of America museum to see a colourful collection of artefacts, photos and memorabilia spotlighting engine-powered vessels.

Warwick is anchored by a lively downtown district known as Apponaug Village. It's home to Warwick's City Hall and is lined with historic buildings, where you can take a self-guided walking tour to admire its collection of architectural gems.
