A Seafood Lover's New England

New England is a dream for seafood lovers, where rugged shores, working harbors, and generations of tradition shape every dish. From Maine’s cold Atlantic waters to Rhode Island’s oyster-rich coves, each stop along the coast brings flavors that feel deeply tied to place, wrapped in salt air and scenic views.

Maine is the natural beginning. As the lobster capital of the region, it offers both taste and experience. Lobster boat outings in Portland or Kennebunkport give a glimpse into daily coastal life, and nothing compares to savoring warm lobster rolls, steamed lobsters, or classic clam bakes right by the harbor. Farther south, New Hampshire and Massachusetts add their own beloved traditions. Portsmouth’s chowder and fried clams pair perfectly with its busy waterfront, while Boston and Cape Cod offer oyster bars, family-run seafood spots, and clam shacks serving the classics that define the region.

Rhode Island is where oysters take center stage. Newport and Narragansett offer fresh shucking with ocean views, along with tastings at local aquaculture farms that reveal the craft behind each briny bite. Throughout the journey, the scenery makes every meal feel special—rocky cliffs, sandy beaches, and charming harbor towns turning each stop into something memorable. New England’s seafood trail is as much about the coastline as the cuisine, creating a flavorful, scenic experience from start to finish.
