BTW - It's "Rhode Trip"

When you were fishing Weekapaug Point, if you looked to your right, a few miles to the west, you may have seen a lighthouse beacon. That's Watch Hill light.

To get to Watch Hill from Weekeapaug, get back onto RT1a south and head down a few miles until you see a sign for WH - take left and follow down into Watch Hill. As you pass through the little village (little shops and a large Inn on your left) you'll start heading back up a hill after the road curves left. Quickly on your left you'll see the back entrance to the Inn parking lot. Try to park as far away from the Inn and as close to the entrance as you can. When you walk back out onto the road, go left and across the street maybee 300-500 feet, you'll see the road you walk to get to the light. It's not a bad walk.

Use this link: Watch Hill Light

Just be sure to be quiet & respectfull of the area. The mansions are BIG & $$$$ and not many approve of the fisherman accessing (perfectly legally) the shoreline.
