Charlestown & South County Beach Escapes

Join us for the Charlestown & South County Beach Escapes, a delightful Labor Day weekend retreat from August twenty-ninth to September first, two thousand twenty-six, in the charming town of Charlestown, Rhode Island. This event is designed for families, couples, pet lovers, and friends seeking a memorable lakeside experience. Set against the serene backdrop of Watchaug Pond and the golden sands of Charlestown Breachway State Beach, the area offers picturesque views of Block Island Sound and lush woodlands. Whether you’re building sandcastles with the kids, enjoying a romantic sunset, or sharing stories around a campfire, there’s something for everyone.

While no formal events or fireworks are planned for this Labor Day, the natural beauty of Charlestown and South County provides ample opportunities for relaxation and recreation. Spend your days swimming in the clear waters, picnicking on the beach, or exploring the nearly eight-mile John Vincent Gormley Trail that winds through Burlingame State Park and the Kimball Wildlife Refuge. As evening approaches, gather with loved ones to watch the sun dip below the horizon, painting the sky with hues of orange and pink—a perfect setting for creating cherished memories.

To make the most of your stay, consider bringing picnic blankets, folding chairs, and sunscreen. While the event doesn’t feature organized activities, the area is rich with natural attractions and local charm. For those traveling with pets, the John Vincent Gormley Trail welcomes leashed dogs, allowing your furry friends to join in the adventure.
