Newport, RI: Cliff Walk

Recommended Posts

On Oct 14th our ship will be in Newport. It is a tender port. Our primary activity is we want to walk the 3.5 mile Cliff Walk behind all of the gilded age mansions. However, there does not appear to be an easy way to get from the pier area to either end of the Cliff Walk.

 

Does anyone know the relatively easiest means of getting to Baily’s Beach which is the furtherest end of the Cliff Walk?

 

There is an excursion from our ship but based on the allotted amount time they can’t do very much of the walk.

 

Thank you.

Get an Uber to drop you off. It can be a challenging walk, some parts of cliff Walk are quite uneven (the Baileys Beach end especially). You could start at the north end (Memorial Blvd) and walk as far out as you want (or until it becomes too rough). You’ll pass behind several mansions and be able to go down Forty Steps. Cliff Walk is beautiful, one of my favorites in Newport
