WHAT I LOVE MOST ABOUT RHODE ISLAND
is being able to experience all four seasons . However , summer is my favorite time of year , when the state comes alive with festivals , music , food and full-on vacation mode . It ’ s that first taste of warm weather that sets the scene and gives a glimmer of hope that cold weather is far behind us and the dog days of summer are on the way .
We ’ ve rounded up the best spots to dine , stay and play in every corner of the state . From rural northern Rhode Island to bustling downtown Providence and all the way down to the breezy southernmost tip , there ’ s something for everyone .
If you ’ re looking for a lazy-hazy lounge around day , pick your favorite beach and drift away at sea ( page 72 ). Or take to our never-ending list of family-friendly activities ( page 69 ) and treat your kiddos to an afternoon jam-packed with fun . Even if you ’ re a year-round resident , I ’ m sure you ’ ll find some things you ’ ve never done before .
So lather up the sunscreen , pull out your favorite sunnies and embrace summer . It ’ s finally here !
