The Dog Friendly Beach In North Kingstown For Walks With Your Pup

If you’re looking for a shore (albeit rocky but that’s par for the course here in Lil Rhody) that welcomes doggies, a good friend looped me in on a spot called Compass Rose Beach in North Kingstown, also known as the Sea Plane Beach at Quonset. (Full disclosure, my friend takes her grand-dog there all the time.)

If you don’t live in NK or aren’t acquainted with someone who does, odds are that it may NOT be on your radar.

Named for a compass that had been painted on the ground near the airport during WWII (pilots who were taking off could look down and double check that the plane’s compass was functioning properly), mostly worn away at this point btw, it’s a paw-fect place for strolling with your 4-legged best friend.

Especially during peak Spring — and Summer — days in Lil Rhody.

Regular visitors appreciate that there are poop bag stations.

And for humans, a Porta Potty. (Not my fave either but you might want to stop at one of your go-to NK or EG cafes beforehand to take care of business.)

Also, a picnic area and some sweet views of the Bay and the Jamestown Bridge.

Interested in taking a spin over there this season? (Repeat after me, more sunshine days are coming, more sunshine days are coming, more sun...)

Simply pop 1542-1598 Roger Williams Way, North Kingstown, RI 02852 into your navigation app of choice and motor on over.
