Delicious local wines in a beautiful setting. The winery building is a restored World War II-era airplane hangar.
A former factory that's been repurposed to house art studios, vintage stores, a brewery, restaurants, and more.
Another great winery located on a gorgeous historic farm.
A great bar and restaurant right on the waterfront in Mystic, with a huge outdoor deck.
The best icecream in Mystic and a must-stop on a hot summer day.
The place that inspired the movie! The decor is nostalgic and the pizza's pretty darn good.
One of the top restaurants in the area, with fabulous food and a "treehouse" roof deck bar overlooking Mystic.
The largest maritime museum in the US, this mostly-outdoor museum has everything from a recreated fishing village to historic boats under restoration that you can tour.
A great local seafood shack, Abbott's has the best lobster rolls (both hot and cold) and gorgeous water views.
A classic diner in an adorable tiny coastal town that's great for breakfast or a scoop of icecream.
This brewery shares a building with a local cheesemaker (the Mystic Cheese Company) so you can enjoy local brews and snacks.
A lovely and family-friendly public beach in the area.
One of our favorite restaurants in the area for fresh, local seafood. Fun fact: this is the very first restaurant we visited on our first trip to coastal CT; who would have known we'd end up in a house just one block away!
There are several different narrated ferry rides that go up and down the coastline. A great way to learn about local history and see the beautiful coast!
One of the largest beaches in the area, complete with a boardwalk, rides and concessions. A must-visit if you want to catch some rays while you're visiting!
