  • Drive south to Falmouth (Massachusetts)|Falmouth and Woods Hole and take the ferry to either Martha's Vineyard|Martha's Vineyard or Nantucket|Nantucket for a peaceful, scenic time on these small, charming islands.
  • Drive south or take the $7.75 commuter rail or $17 express Amtrak to Providence, Rhode Island, which is home to its own share of art and culture, excellent Italian food, and a charming downtown area.
  • Also take a road trip to the North Shore (Massachusetts)|North Shore, Seacoast (New Hampshire)|New Hampshire Seacoast and Southern Coast (Maine)|Southern Maine.
