You’ll see some stunningly beautiful views from Colt State Park, which is considered the gem of the state park system. The park fronts on Narragansett Bay, so definitely take a drive along the shoreline. Or, you can bike along the shoreline or through the park on four miles of bike trails where you’ll see carefully tended fruit trees and flowering shrubs. The park is near Bristol, home to a spectacular 4th of July fireworks display since 1785. Take a moment to reflect on life at the open air Chapel-by-the Sea. The park is named after industrialist Samuel P. Colt and was originally the location of his summer home.
