Make the most of your weekend by visiting one of Newport’s most iconic attractions! The Cliff Walk offers stunning ocean views alongside Newport's historic mansions. It’s a perfect spot for a relaxing stroll, taking in the beauty of the coastline. Ideal for a morning or afternoon adventure before or after the celebrations!
For a memorable experience, we recommend taking a scenic boat cruise around Newport. Newport Classic Cruises at Bannister's Wharf offers various tours, and you can easily book a spot right in the harbor. On our first visit to Newport, we took the Madeline Schooner boat tour and loved every moment! It's a great way to enjoy stunning views of the coastline and historic mansions from the water.
If you have some time during the weekend, we highly recommend checking out The Lobster Bar, located right in the heart of town! It's the perfect spot to enjoy a delicious lobster roll while soaking in waterfront views. Plus, they make our favorite spicy pineapple margarita—it’s a must-try! Whether you're grabbing a quick bite or relaxing with drinks, it's a great place to experience some local flavor.
Explore Nantucket: If you're thinking of extending your trip, we highly recommend visiting Nantucket! Just a ferry ride from Rhode Island, Nantucket is known for its charming cobblestone streets, historic lighthouses, and beautiful beaches. It’s the perfect destination for a relaxing getaway with boutique shops, local seafood, and plenty of coastal charm. Getting there from Newport is easy—catch the ferry in Hyannis or New Bedford for a quick and scenic ride to the island! Visit Cape Cod: Consider adding Cape Cod to your travel plans! Famous for its sandy beaches, quaint villages, and fresh seafood, Cape Cod offers endless opportunities for outdoor adventures, including biking, kayaking, and exploring picturesque coastal towns. From Newport, it's a short drive to the Cape, and once there, you’ll have access to stunning landscapes and unique local experiences. It’s the ideal way to unwind after the wedding festivities!
