Beaches in Mystic, CT

If you’re dreaming about slipping away to the coast with your partner, I can tell you that the beaches in Mystic, CT are exactly the kind of place you’ll want to find yourself. I used to crave this kind of escape when I lived in NYC, and Mystic never let me down. You’ll feel like time slows down as you walk along those peaceful shores. I honestly can’t think of a more charming setting for a laid-back romantic day. I’m really happy to share a few of my favorite moments with you here.

Highlights:

• Relax by the gentle waves at Williams Beach Park—I've always found it so calming.
• Take your time walking along the Mystic River—you’ll love how scenic and soothing it feels.
• Drive over to Esker Point Beach if you're in the mood for bay breezes and maybe some live music (I’ve had some great evenings there!).
• Pack a picnic—I promise you’ll enjoy every bite with that salty air and ocean view around you.
• Explore Mystic Seaport, and don’t miss the sunset by the docks—it’s a moment I always make time for.
