Second Beach, also known as Sachuest Beach, is one of the most consistent and well-regarded breaks in Rhode Island, sitting between Newport and the Sachuest Point National Wildlife Refuge. The Town of Middletown runs a public cam pointed at the surf end of the beach, free to view on the town’s own website.
About the Break
Second Beach is a beach break exposed to south and southeast swell, generally considered more consistent than the more sheltered First Beach in Newport nearby. It draws a real local surf crowd and holds a range of conditions well.
