Mystic Travel Tips

Mystic River Drawbridge
It’s historic! It’s unique! It’s fascinating to watch it go up and down! Mystic River Park, just south of the bridge, is a great place to watch the bridge rise and boats come and go. From May to Oct, the bridge opens hourly during the day at 40 minutes past the hour and on request to let sailboats & yachts pass under.
-
See 3 States at Once!
Go to the tip of Stonington Point, the peninsula at the end of Stonington Village. There’s a little parking lot there with great water views of 3 states, New York (Fisher's Island), Rhode Island, and Connecticut! Where else can you see three states at once?
-
Explore from the Water!
There’s nothing quite like seeing the Mystic River, Seaport, drawbridge, coves and marina areas from the water! Whether on a kayak or paddle board, powerboat, sailboat, private charter or group cruise, check out boat rentals and excursions on our ATTRACTIONS page.
-
Step Back in Time
Mystic is filled with history dating as far back as the 17th century! Explore the fascinating Mystic Seaport for everything nautical, the Mashantucket Pequot Museum for insight into the original native people of the land, and classic Downtown Mystic and Stonington Village for colonial architecture and more!
-
Where's the Beach?
Mystic is really more about the seaport, coves, marinas & town than it is about the beach. If you want big ocean beach, you’ll need to head north about 25-30 min to Misquamicut State Beach in Westerly RI, or the State beach in Watch Hill, RI. With that said, there are two small cove beaches in the area with calm water for wading, and swimming; Esker Point Park in Noank and Williams Beach Park near the YMCA.
-
Public Boat Launches
If you have your own boat, paddleboard, kayak, jet ski, etc., there are a number of places where you can launch your vessel. Just be sure to follow all parking signs and of course have your safety equipment on board. Look for the launch into the Mystic River near the I-95 overpass on River Rd. You’ll also find a launch at the end of Isham St. in Mystic, and off Water st. in Noank.
-
River Road Reverie
Pearl St. and River Road, on the west side of the Mystic River, are low-key and mostly flat, which means this area is great for biking, walking and roller-blading. You’ll also get a nice view of Mystic Seaport from across the river! Also check out the Peace Nature Sanctuary for a woodsy hike up to a ridge that overlooks the Mystic River. Please respect the private property along the river. Thanks!
