Swansea Town Beach
About
Swansea Town Beach is a public ocean beach in Massachusetts, managed by the Town of Swansea and sitting about half a mile from Ocean Grove. Summer is the warmest stretch to visit. Typical averages from a nearby weather station in Tiverton, Rhode Island, put July highs around 85°F and lows near 65°F, with August nearly as warm and September easing to highs in the upper 70s. For time away from the sand, the Ridge Loop hike is about 2 miles away, and the Barrington River offers fishing roughly 5 miles off. A little farther, Stafford Pond and the Sakonnet River both provide more fishing within about 7 miles.
