Ghost Towns to Visit in Summer in Rhode Island

You’ll find Rhode Island’s ghost towns surprisingly accessible during summer months, when Hanton City’s 300-year-old stone foundations peek through forest undergrowth and Fort Wetherill’s concrete batteries stand stark against coastal skies. Rocky Point’s rusting Circle Swing tower still watches over Narragansett Bay, while Napatree Point’s shifting sands periodically reveal hurricane relics from 1938. The Enchanted Forest’s fading fairytale remnants hide in Hopkinton woods, and Ramtail Factory’s mysterious ruins await in Foster. Each location holds stories that unfold through careful exploration and quiet observation.
