Colt State Park

I just love looking out over the water while meditating. Also, this time of year, I get to see lots of deer up close in the park.
If you admire nature, this is a great place to visit.

Expansive, beautifully maintained, family friendly place for walking, dog walking, picnics, weddings, etc. there are restrooms and plenty of benches, trails, etc. my only complaint was the number of people not following the leashed dog LAWS since our dog got attacked (no fault of the park) (LEASH YOUR DAMN DOGS) but the park is lovely lovely lovely. We come here often.

I love bringing my kids here & having family time together. 💜 it’s nice when you can go to a park/beach & explore & find some incredible things.

Beautiful! Wish people would keep it clean. The bathroom was spotless. The second time I went it, someone left their babie's diaper in there.
This is a gorgeous park with bike trails and fishing pier.

Came here a alot during the summer months for family gatherings parties. Tends to be overcrowded during peak summer months, but what park with water access isn't? The sites are maintained well. The staff I've encountered are nice, professional and courteous...My kids like going to the seawall and when the tide is low, look for crustaceans 😅

Took our bikes out one sunny afternoon for a stroll and it was by far one of my most favorite places we've been! So much fun, easy to navigate, enjoy the views and beautiful weather!

6/23 Colt State Park, Bristol RI. My opinion is that this is the best walking park on the RI bay. Plenty of free places for parking, restrooms are clean this morning and the walking paths are generously wide. Great place for outings, fishing and picnics.

One of my favorite places to go anytime, ESPECIALLY FOR SUNSETS and to walk the dog ❤

I need to remember that this park is near the water! Bring a sweater just in case. The sea breeze makes it great even if the high for the day is hot. Lots of picnic tables everywhere, but spread out enough so everyone has enough space. I like walking by the water and looking at the rocks, crabs, and snails.

The park itself has paved pathways, great parking, picnic tables, benches and sometimes lemonade or ice cream trucks.

11.13.21 Took our bikes on this trail and explored the park as well as the East Bay Bike Path. What's not to love about this State Park? It was free, ample parking spots for this in cars, lots to do with families, on dates, or solo. People were biking, walking, sitting in the sun. Very quiet and clean area.

I highly recommend this park. Clean, large space with great scenery. Great place for picnics etc.

Beautiful place! My brother in law set up a family reunion for us at a lovely picnic area 25. You get 10 tables for your group and have all day to use the spot. It was so awesome we got there at 10 and stayed until sunset 🥰 the staff was very accommodating and came and checked on us a few times. Thanks for the memories

Park has lots of open space overlooking scenic Narragansett Bay. Picnic, nature walks, and small public beach. Has public restrooms and showers. Child's playground. Summer children's camp.

Very scenic....there are many different locations within the park to enjoy. Large gatherings, picnics, bike path, walking, enjoying the scenery, beach....there's something for everyone.

Colt State Park in Rhode Island has consistently provided me with five-star experiences. The pleasant atmosphere, expansive tracts of land, and the option to swim make it an ideal destination for both relaxation and recreation. It's the perfect spot for family gatherings, offering a great setting for barbecues and quality time together. Highly recommended for a wholesome outdoor experience!

Stunning RI State Park. No fee to get in. Excellent place for family picnics with several grilling areas throughout the Park to choose from. Directly on Narragansett Bay with gorgeous Ocean Views. Great place to walk or Bike, and just a short distance from the East Bay Bike Path and downtown Bristol. One of the nicest places to catch a great sunset. Highly recommended!!!

Amazing waterfront park with a state beach and boat launch. There isna walking/biking trail, picnic benches and stone walkways. The sunsets here are beautiful and the people are friendly. It does however fill up quickly some weekends.

It was so peaceful walking along the water and having a picnic in the gazebo this where I'm spending my summer at least once a week

Beautiful views of Narragansett Bay. Relaxing walk, run or bike ride along the winding street that runs on the shore for a mile or more.

The areas and sections of this waterside State Park in Bristol RI is very diverse in character and views.
It has different moods to seek out, pathways to follow, shaded areas to tuck under, and all the sunlight you want.
A favorite gathering place for groups of friends or organizations celebrating.
I even conducted a couple outdoor weddings there years ago.
For a time 40 years ago I was blessed to live within walking distance.
Walking, running, wandering, even napping can happen between raids of your picnic basket!!
