You are definetly right about access being the most important. I went out yesterday during low tide to see if I couldnt find a place to prop myself and the two potential spots I thought would be good (ive actually been there before but in a boat) were right on a main road with a slight walk to the shorline. Now its set up as a public walkway but I dont know what the rule is about parking in the breakdown lane for a few hours.
The other is a private beach that requires a sticker but as of yesterday they werent checking yet....I'll find out this evening.
PS
you are right I had never thought of the tidal advantage.
Where in RI are you? Im heading down there in two weekends.
Thanks for the tips. Ill let you know how it goes
