With good surf and close proximity to the Connecticut state line, Misquamicut draws huge crowds. It offers families low prices and convenient facilities for changing, showering and eating. Another plus is that it's near an old-fashioned amusement area, Atlantic Beach Park , which ranges between charming and derelict. Here you'll find plenty to enjoy or avoid – miniature golf, batting cages, kiddie rides and, for a lucky few, tetanus shots. Misquamicut is situated just south of Westerly.
