About Old

Beach

Old Beach, located between Easton’s Beach and Bellevue Avenue, is a coastal and residential Newport neighborhood with oceanfront cliffs and shingled cottages. The neighborhood’s character concentrates along Memorial Boulevard near the Cliff Walk entrance, where surf shops, casual cafés, and beach-day foot traffic set the tempo. The Cliff Walk frames daily routines with salt air and mansion backdrops, while side streets show classic New England porches and tidy gardens. The International Tennis Hall of Fame adds a polished cultural note a short walk inland. Easton’s Beach and its boardwalk keep the shoreline active from morning to dusk.
