Newport Beach Vacations
Mansions, sailing and the Cliff Walk.
Gilded Age mansions above the Cliff Walk, a harbor full of sailboats, and beaches ten minutes from downtown.
Overview
Why Newport.
Newport is a sailing town with a Gilded Age hangover in the best way. Tour The Breakers, walk the 3.5-mile Cliff Walk between the mansions and the sea, swim at Easton's Beach or Second Beach, and eat on the wharf. It is an easy drive from Boston and New York and a great long weekend.
