The cruise begins in Newport – one of the yachting capitals of the world and a famous Summer/Fall destination. After boarding the boat and settling in, an afternoon and evening exploring the town.  Walk along Cliff Walk, perhaps visiting a summer cottage (mansion) like Rosecliff featured in The Gatsby, and dining at one of Newport’s many restaurants like the Clarke Cooke House or the White Horse Tavern.

The next day, we will sail out of Newport Harbor, past the iconic Castle Rock Lighthouse (starting area of the Newport-Bermuda Race) – perhaps crossing tacks with a classic Americas Cup 12 meter yacht. Where we go from there will depend on the weather and your particular desires with guidance from your experienced skipper. If you love to sail and steer – please do, if not, you can let the crew do it for you!

The next day, we sail across Nantucket Sound to Nantucket with its famous beaches, town and harbor. Exploring the quiet side streets with flowering hydrangea surrounding classic New England cottages and homes is a favorite thing to do. Many of the homes are topped by a “widows walk.” Maybe you will want to stop in a shop and become the proud owner of a Nantucket basket purse.
