Things To Do
Cliff Walk
Court's Top Pick: Feel salty ocean breezes on a 3.5 mile Cliff Walk that offers plenty of places to stop and take in the natural beauty of the area. Many of the Gilded Age mansions are located along this path, showcasing the timeless allure of this ocean playground.
Mansion Tours
Take a trip through time to the Gilded Age and explore an era when America’s wealthiest families built impressive seaside mansions during an exciting period of growth and change. There are more than a dozen historic mansions and landscapes to visit in Newport.
Greenvale Vineyards
Alex's Top Pick: Greenvale was actually one of our wedding venue options! Greenvale Vineyards’ produces signature wines on their family farm. It's a great place to hangout and grab a drink plus it's dog friendly. You can sit outside and listen to live jazz music on Saturdays. We recommend the cabernet franc and the pinot gris ramato.
Thames Street
A Must Do: The very nerve center of the City by the Sea's bustling downtown area, Thames Street is lined on either side with a myriad of shops, restaurants, and pubs, making it a worthwhile place to stop between morning mansion viewings and sunset sails.
