One of Newport’s most beloved gems. The whole island is only about a mile around, so it’s an easy, charming stroll along the waterfront. Catch the historic Balboa Island Ferry — in operation since 1919, it still carries passengers (and cars!) across the bay for just a couple dollars.
Very walkable with waterfront boutiques and restaurants.
Open-air mall with ocean views, luxury retailers, and great dining.
