beachLocated on the south shore of Rhode Island in Misquamicut, overlooking Block Island and the tip of Long Island, Atlantic Beach Park has been a charming landmark in this area dating back to 1920, and is still owned and operated by the same family.

The original name was "Atlantic Beach Casino", meaning a place to enjoy the beautiful surf, where, in days gone past, families and friends would sit in rocking chairs on the boardwalk, enjoying the sun and swimming in the warm waters of the Atlantic Ocean.

The main attraction was, and still is, the Carousel, circa. 1920, always fun to ride for children and adults alike. The Wurlitzer band organ, circa. 1920 is the highlight of the amusement area and the sounds of this mighty organ resonate all over the beach area during the day and evening. Three of the signature horses from this Carousel were carved by the famous Marcus Ilions and are stabled at the New England Carousel Museum, Bristol, CT. Along with the Carousel; there are children's amusement rides, 9-hole mini-golf, and a game room with video games and redemption facility.

The Windjammer Snack Bar has delicious quality burgers and hot dogs, as well as seafood, lobster rolls, chowder and our famous clam fritters. After a nice lunch or light dinner, ice cream is a great finishing touch at Dusty's Original Dairy Bar, residing in the same spot for over 40 years, featuring the best soft serve ice cream on the beach!!

 Across the street is Blockhead Surf Shop which carries all the top surf and skate equipment and apparel. Horse of a Different Color Gift Shop is a great place to browse for all sorts of vacation souvenirs. Bayview Funpark is next door, featuring Slic-Track Go-Karts, 19-Hole challenging Mini-Golf, Bumper Boats and Batting Cages along with the Water Wizz waterslide.

The main building of Atlantic Beach Park houses the Windjammer Surf Bar, a newly renovated sports bar with an artistic surfing décor. See the Calendar for upcoming events and scheduled bands. This Bar opens directly onto the Patio, with tables and umbrellas just steps from the beach. There is also a Patio Bar for those who like to be outside near the water. On weekends, enjoy live entertainment from 1 to 5pm on the patio while lounging in our Adirondack chairs sipping your favorite tropical drink.

Also in the main building is the Mariner Room, also newly renovated, which has entertainment throughout the summer, and can be used for weddings and other private functions.
