Welcome to Green Hill Beach, RI
Located in South Kingstown, RI, Green Hill is a quiet, family beach community surrounded by Atlantic blue waters, coastal ponds and conservation land. The area is a mix of pond and hillside residences that are encircled by a lush, fragrant green landscape. Homes and cottages enjoy ocean breezes & abundant views of the Atlantic ocean & salt ponds. Surfing, especially in the stormy winter season, is popular.
Ocean tides & Nor’easters constantly reshape the shoreline making Green Hill one of the most beloved & ever changing coastlines in all of Rhode Island, if not the country.
