Sakonnet Point Review

A scenic drive down Route 77 ends at this quiet, southeastern corner of Rhode Island and an

Army Corp of Engineers breakwater people like to fish off of or walk along to view the harbor. The 1884 Sakonnet Lighthouse on Little Cormorant Rock is not open to the public. Much of the land is privately owned, and parking is limited in the area.
