Springtime in Rhode Island

Rebirth, renewal, reinvention. As the Ocean State shakes off its snowy winter coat to welcome the verdant, vibrant, dazzling season of spring, there are so many things to do and see. Embrace nature on our parks & trails, beaches, and bike paths. Take an outdoor tour on land or water to combine fresh air and exercise with information and fun facts (and in the case of food tours, delicious samples!). Play golf on some of the finest courses in New England or explore local farms and gardens.

Experience Spring 2022 in the Ocean State. We're just getting warmed up!
