2 days in Rhode Island

Do you already have a place to stay?

Newport can certainly fill up 2-days in the summer.

Check out:

2 days in Rhode Island

Yes, we do have a place to stay in North Kingstown, a B%26amp; B. Is it an ok place to stay?

Yes, North Kingstown is a nice residential area...short drive to Wakefield, Newport, and South County (Narragansett, Pt. Judith, etc.) Also not too far to Providence.

If weather permits I would recommend a day sail. Try the sightsailer near Bowen%26#39;s wharf for a nice tour of the local waters.

Walk the cobblestone wharfs, have drinks or lunch at an outdoor patio.

Visit one or two of the historic mansions along Bellevue ave.

Thanks for the suggestions!!!

You might also enjoy walking the Cliff Walk that runs along the ocean in front of many of the Newport mansions. You can park your car at the Newport visitor center and take a bus to the start of the cliff walk. Then another bus at the end of the cliff walk. This way you won%26#39;t have to do a round trip on the Cliff Walk but can walk from one end to the other.

If you see the mansions recommend seeing only 2 mansions in one day. If you go to too many at once they will become a blur (so much opulence)!

Look for postings by Milemarker0 he%26#39;s got a lot of great ideas for restaurants to go to.
