Narrgansett for 1st time

To all the Rhody guys

My wife and I were in Narragansett yesterday for a road race. It was the first time either of us had been there and we were so impressed! What a beautiful area that is. We plan on spending some more time down there soon, it seemed like a great place to spend a weekend.

We we at a place I think called South County beach? Maybe I'm wrong, but there were buildings right on the water and plenty of parking. What a spot! On the drive home we both kept saying what a beautiful place that was.

So where does the tourist stay and what should we see when we spend a weekend in that area???

Don't know your budget but you were running by Narragansett Town Beach I think; I saw road race signs driving up 1A to go to work...

From the description it sounds like the race started at Scarboro beach. There are a number of places to stay in the general area, but during the summer they are all expensive, its just a question of which is more expensive.

Weekends in the summer gets pretty nasty. Parking, eateries, lodgings, all expensive and crowded.
Some places just a few miles from the water are usually somewhat cheaper and easier. From the July 4th weekend on,,, being sure to have a confirmed reservation is a very good idea.
