One of Newport’s must-dos! This scenic path runs along the coastline with gorgeous ocean views on one side and historic mansions on the other. Great for a morning walk, photo op, or just soaking in the beauty. Bonus: stop at The Chanler for a drink—it's right on the trail and has a beautiful terrace overlooking the water.
Tour one (or a few!) of the famous Gilded Age mansions like The Breakers, Marble House, or Rosecliff. They’re stunning inside and out—and offer a glimpse into Newport’s over-the-top history.
For those who are tennis buffs, this is a must-see! You can tour the museum and even check out the historic grass courts where the greats have played. It’s a fun and easy stop right in the heart of Newport.
Perfect for shopping, snacking, or grabbing a drink by the water. Lots of cute local shops, galleries, and cafes to explore at your own pace.
For the ultimate Newport vibe, grab a drink and relax in an Adirondack chair on the lawn at Castle Hill Inn. It’s got stunning views of the water, sailboats, and sunsets—perfect for a laid-back afternoon.
A local favorite for a classic beach day—less crowded than First Beach and great for swimming, sunbathing, or just relaxing with a book.
