There's nothing more enjoyable than an afternoon beside the sea. Round up the troops, throw together a picnic and enjoy the fresh air at Second Beach.

When you've finished at this stretch of coastline in Middletown, why not make your way to The Breakers, Fort Adams State Park, and Naval War College Museum? They're not too far from Second Beach and also a favorite with many tourists.

8/10 Very Good! (1,000 reviews)

We had a wonderful stay! We were upgraded to a suite which was beautiful and very clean. The staff went above and beyond and were so helpful and kind. The location is great, quick ride to downtown. Very clean property and nicely decorated for the holidays! Breakfast at the Little Clam was excellent.
