Fishermen's Memorial State Park offers a "seaside village" environment, as well as a campground and other facilities. Note that the campground is an awesome camping ground great for a quick stop through the area, not to spend your vacation at. The park is cool because you are literally walking through a World War II army base. There are nice horseshoe pits, tennis courts, basketball courts and other recreational opportunities to keep you occupied as well as “lookout” hills used in the War that are now used for sightseeing and hiking. The park includes sites for 147 trailers and 35 tents; reservations are required.
A scenic spot popular with fishermen, hikers, and bird watchers located just down the road from Scarborough State Beach, Black Point is the perfect place to go for a walk on the nice day. The area consists of a wooded dirt path that extends toward the Bay. Open from dawn to dusk and free year round, it offers a great view of the coastline, and the tide pools in the area also help to make the location interesting. Visitors should be careful since the rocks can become very slippery, however, and swimming is not recommended as the water is quite deep and very rough. On-site parking is available
Spanning Ocean Road and overlooking the town beach, the Narragansett Towers are all that remain of the Narragansett Pier Casino.

Today they host a wide variety of events, and are an extremely popular venue for weddings.
