Occupying the former grounds of one of Newport's grandest estates, Brenton Point State Park affords its visitors one of the most commanding and spectacular views on the East Coast. The park’s 89-acre site is ideal for picnicking, hiking, bird watching, fishing or enjoying the majestic views of the ocean. It also features the striking Portuguese Discovery Monument, a tribute to navigators. Scheduling a School Visit Planning a field trip or large gathering? Please contact the us to reserve the park!
