It was my first visit to Narragansett. I parked along the beach and watched the surfers riding the waves. I enjoyed my visit. I cannot wait to come back. More

I love the beach and I do like this beach. It's great to go to during the day or night. The one drawback is that they charge for this beach. It's not a huge beach but clean. At night if you go it's nice to watch the surfers. More

This is open Atlantic waters with fine sand, wind and lots of sun. Sometimes the waves are high enough for surfing. Plenty of parking ($$$). The traffic can be heavy on the roads leading to it. Public transportation is sparse. More

this place is quickly becoming a mess. Its practically eroded right up to the parking lot. They have a chain link fence. It looks like a beach near NYC. More

I don't often go on this beach, but it is sandy and well maintained. During the summer, throngs of tourists crowd the beach. What I like is the walk along the water.

There's not much more to say... Narragansett Beach is a Rhode Island classic. Smooth beach sand, miles of beach, generally calm surf. Perfect for families with young kids learning how to body surf, or lovers enjoying the sun and ocean, getting to know each other. More

I appreciated the manner in which the Beach was operated. Everyone could have fun but there were rules to ensure that very fact. More

Narragansett beach has it all. Great clean beach, with areas for surfing boogie boards and more. Next to the beach is a wall with path great for strolling and bike riding. The shops across the street has something for everyone! Even surfboard, paddleboard and boogie rental as well as lessons. And to top it all off the public library is... More
