New England is home to some of the most amazing places to visit in the country. In addition to the incredible views, amazing people and delicious food, the region is relatively small - making it the PERFECT location for a road trip.

Portland, ME
The most northern destination on our list, Portland clocks in at 5.5 hours from NYC. During your visit, make sure to:
-Check out the amazing lighthouses like Portland Head Lighthouse, and Spring Point Ledge Lighthouse
-Visit the waterfront parks, especially Fort Allen Park
-And eat the incredible food, including Highroller Lobster and Holy Donut
Bonus Stops: Freeport and Ogunquit, ME
Before heading south to our next stop, consider stopping by either Freeport or Ogunquit, ME. Freeport is the home of LL Bean flagship store, outlet shopping, and a bizarre desert! Ogunquit features a stunning beach perfect for relaxing and catching some rays in the summertime.
Portsmouth, NH
Settled in the 1600s, this bustling seaport town is as beautiful as it is rich in history. During your visit - make sure you don't miss out on taking a self guided tour of a retired naval submarine! For more on that, check out our previous video linked above.
Westerly, RI
Featuring both a thriving downtown and beautiful beaches - Westerly is a can't miss stop along your New England road trip. While you're there make sure to spend a day at Misquamicut State Beach for some fun in the sun, as well as visiting the Watch Hill district of Westerly.
Stonington & Mystic, CT
Best known for the village of Mystic - Stonington, CT boasts some of the most unforgettable sights along the New England coastline. Mystic is home to a one of a kind drawbridge that is terrible for traffic and amazing to see in action, leveraging two gigantic rocks as counterweights! If that wasn't enough, just off of Main St is the Mystic Seaport Museum - featuring restored and preserved historical vessels that you can even actually board - as well as a reimagined waterfront settlement to stroll. Away from the hustle and bustle of Mystic, a walk through Stonington's quiet and cute downtown leads right to the Stonington Lighthouse Museum - which was built back in 1840! Dubois Beach, and most importantly Stonington Point - a beautiful sunset spot where you can see both RI and NY while standing in CT!
Washington, CT
Last but not least, our only non-coastal recommendation is Washington, CT. This small town's charm is so overwhelming that it is actually the inspiration for the early 2000s TV, Gilmore Girls! Home to some of our favorite hiking spots, including the Thoreau Bridge at Hidden Valley Preserve - Washington, CT can't be missed for those looking to find a quiet moment in nature.
