Salty Brine State Beach is a public recreation area occupying slightly more than one acre (0.40 ha) of ocean shore in the village of Galilee, town of Narragansett, Rhode Island.[3] Established in 1954 as Galilee State Beach, it was renamed in 1990 to honor Salty Brine, a Rhode Island radio and television personality.[4] A 2,800-square-foot (260 m2) beach pavilion and boardwalk were added to the facility in 2010.[5] The area offers ocean swimming and saltwater fishing and is open seasonally.[6]
