Bonnet-Shores is one of the villages located within the town of Narragansett on the southeast coast of Rhode Island. Narragansett sits on a narrow strip of land the runs along the eastern bank of the Pettaquamscutt River on the shore of Narragansett Bay. Bonnet Shores is basically a small, crescent-shaped beach area north of Narragansett Bay. The entire population of what locals call "Gansett," was 15,868 as of the 2010 census, but the population swells during the summer months. The beach at Bonnet Shores is beautiful, with rocks to climb and tide pools to explore. It's a popular beach for families with children due to its' small size and relatively calm tides. Things to do in the area include swimming, sunning, beachcombing, hiking, biking, fishing, sailing, tennis, and golf. Things to see include the landmark, The Towers, also known as the Tower entrance to the Narragansett Casino. This historic structure is the only remains of the Narragansett Pier Casino built in the 1880s, which was the center of social life in the area at that time. The structure passes over Ocean Road along Rhode Island Sound, and is listed on the National Register of Historic Places. Bonnet Shores offers many beachside vacation rental homes and cottages, perfect for large families or reunions. It's a beautiful little place, with something for everyone.
