beaches offer visitors a chance to enjoy many outdoor activities or

popular, annual events including the Charlestown Seafood Festival,
Rhythm & Roots Music Festival and the Big Apple Circus. While
you're in Southern Rhode Island, don't forget to visit the U.S. Fish &
Wildlife Service headquarters, Kettle Pond Visitor Center, for hands on
exploration and fun wildlife observation for the whole family. Come and
experience the true essence of this South County gem!
