By Philip Cozzolino — Narragansett, RI — Narragansett was recently named among the top three coastal towns in the country by travel website Big 7 Travel. In its write-up of the town, Big 7 Travel cited Narragansett’s recreational opportunities, beaches, history and seafood as reasons for the distinction.

“Narragansett is the total package,” the website reads. “It’s got incredible surf, some of the best beach bars on the East Coast, loads of history and, dare we say, the best seafood in New England. Perfect for foodie travelers, history buffs or leisure enthusiasts, it’s impossible not to have a great time here. Be sure to head to the historic Coast Guard House for the best views of Narragansett Bay and don’t skimp on the local oyster platters.”

Narragansett was ranked the third best coastal town in the U.S. in the recent list, which ranked the top 50 coastal towns throughout the country. Nantucket, Mass. came in at number two and Carmel-by-the-Sea, Calif. took the number-one spot.
