Rhode Island Trip

Good afternoon all,

I am going to Rhode Island for a week camping. We are doing the following.

Trolley tour of New Port with 2 Mansion Tours
Day trip to Martha's Vineyard
Day trip to Block Island

What else would any of you recommend to do?

Any help would be great

Thank you

Jason & Kristi Geary

    Where are you staying? Kids in tow or just adults?

    Do you like wine? Try Sakonnet Vineyards.
    Narragansett shoreline
    As you mention, Newport Mansions is good. Can't believe they were just summer cottages. Also there, Cliff Walk, "10 mile" ocean drive, Fort Adams.
    Foxwoods/Mohegan Sun Casino
    Old Mystic Seaport, Mystic Aquarium
    Attend a Waterfire In Providence (Check Schedule)
    Patriot Place (If you are staying at Normandy Farms)

    Places to eat.
    Iggys Doughboy Doughboy and Chowder House
    Wrights Chicken Farm (If you head North of Providence)
    Chelo's (Small RI only chain)
    One of the many seafood shacks. Local to me, Flo's and Evelyn's comes to mind.
