Watch Hill is a beautiful seaside village nestled along the shore of Block Island Sound. Unique shops and fine restaurants combine to make this an extremely popular resort area. Watch Hill is surrounded by the Atlantic Ocean, providing visitors with spectacular scenery and the most romantic location to watch the sun set over the bay.  

Watch Hill's physical location between New York City and Boston make it ideal for day trips. However, Watch Hill’s sandy beaches and relaxed atmosphere draw many visitors in for extended stays.

Be sure to visit the historic Watch Hill Lighthouse, as well as The Flying Horse Carousel, which is said to be the oldest operating carousel in the United States. Bring a picnic lunch and take a leisurely hike out to Napatree Point, a half mile barrier beach, with the remains of Fort Mansfield at its tip. Come explore the fun and excitement of our charming village and you too will realize why so many visitors return here year after year.
