Many of our Rhode Island restaurants offer all this, and more! Order Aunt Carries and take your food down to the beach, or experience ocean views while dining at the Coast Guard House in Narragansett.  Flea markets During the summer, sunny Sunday mornings are a great time to adventure to one of dozens of local flea markets. Regardless of your interests, you can browse, barter, or buy from one of the many vendors. Rhode Island hosts several indoor and outdoor flea markets throughout the year. With ever-changing inventory, you’re likely to leave any of these venues satisfied!
