But then, our natural draw to the sea yields a magnetizing, mighty, magnificent and memorable experience. How many places can one witness a one-of-a-kind ocean view like this?<\/p>\n<p>Some hints on where this is located before we give the answer:<br \/>\nIt&#8217;s in southern New England.<br \/>\nMore specifically, Rhode Island.<br \/>\nThe walking path spans about three-and-a-half miles.<br \/>\nSome incredibly beautiful, massive homes can be seen along the way.<br \/>\nThe path is designated a National Recreation Trail located within a National Historic District.<br \/>\nA famous denominational college is located adjacent to part of the path.<br \/>\nDaffodils saturate a sector of the trail in the spring.<\/p>\n<p>Have you guessed this location yet?

The stairway to the ocean that you see in this post is located near Salve Regina University (the denominational school previously mentioned in this post) at Ochre Point. The commanding Atlantic Ocean views, mansions, beautiful Salve Regina University and Easton&#8217;s and Baily Beaches make for an unforgettable experience.<\/p>\n<figure id=\"attachment_1087\" aria-describedby=\"caption-attachment-1087\" style=\"width: 1000px\" class=\"wp-caption alignleft\"><img loading=\"lazy\" class=\"wp-image-1087\" src=\"http:\/\/visitingnewengland.com\/blog-photo-tour\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/05\/Cliff-Walk-New-England.jpg\" alt=\"The Cliff Walk, Newport, Rhode Island\" width=\"1000\" height=\"750\" srcset=\"https:\/\/visitingnewengland.com\/blog-photo-tour\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/05\/Cliff-Walk-New-England.jpg 960w, https:\/\/visitingnewengland.com\/blog-photo-tour\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/05\/Cliff-Walk-New-England-300x225.jpg 300w, https:\/\/visitingnewengland.com\/blog-photo-tour\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/05\/Cliff-Walk-New-England-768x576.jpg 768w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 1000px) 100vw, 1000px\" \/><figcaption id=\"caption-attachment-1087\" class=\"wp-caption-text\"><em>The Cliff Walk, Newport.<\/em><\/figcaption><\/figure>\n<p>Also, there&#8217;s <a href=\"https:\/\/www.booking.com\/hotel\/us\/the-chanler-at-cliff-walk.en.html?aid=875879&amp;no_rooms=1&amp;group_adults=2\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\"><strong>The Chanler at Cliff Walk<\/strong><\/a>, a renowned hotel &#8212; just a stone&#8217;s throw off the path.<\/p>\n<figure id=\"attachment_1417\" aria-describedby=\"caption-attachment-1417\" style=\"width: 1000px\" class=\"wp-caption alignleft\"><img loading=\"lazy\" class=\"wp-image-1417\" src=\"http:\/\/visitingnewengland.com\/blog-photo-tour\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/09\/chanler.jpg\" alt=\"The Chanler at Cliff Walk in Newport, R.I.\" width=\"1000\" height=\"750\" srcset=\"https:\/\/visitingnewengland.com\/blog-photo-tour\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/09\/chanler.jpg 2048w, https:\/\/visitingnewengland.com\/blog-photo-tour\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/09\/chanler-300x225.jpg 300w, https:\/\/visitingnewengland.com\/blog-photo-tour\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/09\/chanler-768x576.jpg 768w, https:\/\/visitingnewengland.com\/blog-photo-tour\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/09\/chanler-1024x768.jpg 1024w, https:\/\/visitingnewengland.com\/blog-photo-tour\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/09\/chanler-1200x900-cropped.jpg 1200w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 1000px) 100vw, 1000px\" \/><figcaption id=\"caption-attachment-1417\" class=\"wp-caption-text\"><em>The Chanler at Cliff Walk.<\/em><\/figcaption><\/figure>\n<p>Newport&#8217;s Cliff Walk is just part of the fun overall experience in Newport.
