For those looking for Rhode Island 2024 Solar Eclipse Resources, here is a great start and guide. This article will provide state park information to provide assistance and a centralized place for this information to know where to best view the 2024 solar eclipse.
The majority of Rhode Island will be covered in some fashion due to its small size and location with totality greater than 80%, as the total duration for the entire state will be at least 2 hours and 23 minutes of at least 89% coverage. Although it won’t experience 100% totality, those in Rhode Island will have a great 2024 Solar Eclipse view! 10 of the 16 state parks have a greater than 90% view, which means 62.5% of the state parks have a greater visibility than 90% totality and the remaining 6 state parks are above 80% totality.
The time shown are in EDT, or eastern time. The Rhode Island State Parks can be found at https://www.riparks.com. Rhode Island State Parks camping can be made through the following Reserve America link and open up 12 months in advance.

State Parks
There are 16 total state parks in Rhode Island, but none of them are in 100% totality. There are fees for some of the state parks on the beaches. There aren’t any parks that have less than 89% visibility; therefore, all of the state parks in the state will be listed. We recommend going to each place and finding where in the sky the eclipse will be visible as we cannot guarantee that the eclipse will be visible at each and every park from every location.
