Newport, Rhode Island

If you can’t get enough of “The Gilded Age” series, THIS is the place for you! This beach town first shot to prominence when it became a summer playground for the early American titans of industry.

Think Vanderbilts, whose Newport “cabin” is The Breakers, a 70-room Italian Renaissance estate, and the Astors and Morgans.

You can take a stroll past the legendary homes and many other historic Gilded Age mansions on Newport’s Cliff Walk as it spirals over the coastal bluffs. Continue on your journey to Easton’s Beach.

It’s a family-friendly stretch of sand that goes by: First Beach with locals. And while you’re in the area, make sure you hit the lobster roll stand and the lemonade truck for some refreshments.

On the harbor side, you’ll be greeted by brick sidewalks and some darling colonial buildings on Bowen’s Wharf, where you can sit back and eat oysters to your heart’s content.
