Coastal Connecticut Apt: Walk to Sound View Beach!

With Sound View Beach just across the street, you can sink your toes into the sandy shores in no time! Watch the kids boogie board, take a dip in the refreshing waters, or simply bask in the sun as all your worries melt away.

Only a few steps away The Pavilion serving up food, drinks, and live music, so you don’t have to go far for a good time! Also within walking distance is a carousel, Lenny’s on the Beach seafood restaurant, and Vecchitto’s Italian Ice.

To get out on the water, rent kayaks and paddle boards from Black Hall Outfitters or book a fishing charter. For a day on land, head up to Essex where you can pamper yourself at The Spa of Essex, walk through the Connecticut River Museum, or hop on the Essex Steam Train & Riverboat.

There are many more attractions all along the coast, including the Niantic Bay Boardwalk, Rocky Neck State Park, and Lynde Point Lighthouse. To stay close to town, visit the Sculpture Grounds or stop by the Florence Griswold Museum to view some art!
