This is another kayak rental option. The Narrow River is not actually a river but a 7 mile long tidal inlet. It’s a beautiful place to explore and a little more challenging because it has a strong tidal current at times.

This is a relaxing way to see the bay and get out onto the water. The champagne sail provides unlimited champagne or beer for your trip. We brought snacks, too. I would highly recommend it.

An artisan studio in a beautiful location inland-- West Kingston. A 22 minute drive. You could combine this with a trip to Kenyon's Grist Mill (best to go on a weekend).

If you are a baker, this is a great place to visit. Weekends are the best time to go if you want a tour. As of Fall 2022, tours are at 1 pm Saturdays and Sundays. Check their website for hours, etc. before you go. You could combine this with a visit to Peter Pots Pottery, also in West Kingston. It is the second oldest continuously operating business in the state, just behind the White Horse Tavern in Newport.

The location seems bad (right on the highway), but they really create a nice atmosphere here, and you don't hear or see the highway. We had an excellent dinner here.

A gorgeous location for eating inside or out. If you don't want to commit to eating there, you can get a drink at their outdoor bar and sit on the lawn with a view of the bay. If the weather is comfortable, you can't beat this location.
