The Coast
The Coast Weekends with Yankee
From Connecticut’s soft sandy beaches to Maine’s rugged granite shores, our Atlantic coastline is a place of beauty and wonder, drawing visitors from around the world. Start in Ogunquit, Maine, named by Yankee magazine as the best beach town in New England. Then travel north to Acadia National Park. And then a lesson in traditional boatbuilding in Newport, Rhode Island.
