Newport is one of the state's quaintest sea towns. It harbors some of the finest seafood restaurants in the area. However, if seafood is not your style, Newport still has plenty of other fantastic dining options. Places like 22 Bowen or The Mooring are some of the most upscale places you can go in Newport short of having dinner at The Breakers. The atmosphere is high class. These places are great for anniversaries, celebration dinners, and expensive couple's nights out. The menu is only rivaled by the wine lists. Both are quite extensive.

Newport is known for its lively night scene. Whether you want to enjoy a quiet cocktail, hang with the locals, or dance along to a live band, you will find a place in Newport to suit your preferences. “Downtown” Newport has bars all within walking distance of one another. Many bars are located just a few blocks from most hotels and inns, making a scenic walk an easy choice. Most bars are in the downtown area including upper Thames Street, lower Thames Street, America’s Cup Avenue, Memorial Boulevard, and Bellevue Avenue.

Pas på dig selv

Though many visitors awed by Newport's mansions, immaculate public gathering places and well-preserved historic sites would be surprised to hear that the city has a higher-than-average crime rate, it is generally very safe in the areas where tourists would typically find themselves. Like in most areas that attract large numbers of tourists, the crime rate is inflated because when visitors fall victim to crime, the statistics, which measure crimes per resident, reflect the crime but not the presence of the non-resident visitor. Nonetheless, Newport is a major destination and as such, visitors should be as alert as they would be in any dense area where criminals may seek to target people who are on vacation and therefore less aware of their surroundings.

One area where visitors should be particularly cautious is the Cliff Walk. Though crime is virtually unheard of here, more than a few people have been injured, some of them seriously so, while wandering off the path. The Cliff Walk's dramatic views come with dramatic drops. If you stay on the path no matter how tempting it may be to get a closer look, you'll have nothing to worry about.
