Outdoor Activities and Sights

At the point where Narragansett Bay meets the Ocean. Wow, and, there are some inlets where, depending on the tide, you can climb down through cliffs and find a secluded beach.

There are some great bike paths across the state -- this is the closest, and also one that allows you to go longer stretches without stopping as you go farther out.

Food Scene - Local

One of my favorite restaurants in the city. Low key but special atmosphere, awesome food, and a great price point. The kind of place that is great for outdoor seating in the summer but also to have a romantic meal watching the snow fall outside.

Right around the corner and totally worth it. Bring your appetite or some friends. You won't believe the quality and quantity of food for the price. May be cash only.

This is my kind of pizza. Medium crust, usually crispy, and not the greasy kind of pizza. Contactless delivery via GrubHub but also a short walk from the house.
