Things to do
Uncovering Mystic's seafaring past
You'll need several days to explore all the family-friendly attractions Mystic has to offer, from museums and galleries to thrilling aerial adventures and escape rooms. Start at the Mystic Seaport, a large maritime museum on the waterfront, with dozens of historic buildings and a shipyard full of old vessels, some deemed National Historic Landmarks. The surrounding historic district is packed with places to shop and dine. While you're in the maritime mood, take the group over to the Mystic Aquarium to get a closer look at some fascinating sea life. Residents include beluga whales, sea lions and African penguins.
Activities
Waterfront fun in Mystic
One of the best ways to get a feel for the maritime vibes of Mystic is on a boat tour that introduces you to the landscape and heritage of this seafaring village. Several vendors in the area offer experiences that range from rides along the river and narrated excursions in the harbor to charters out to popular fishing and diving spots. If you're traveling without kids, why not opt for a romantic sunset cruise on the ocean, where you can witness the picturesque coastline painted in dramatic shades of orange and pink?
Weather
Sunny summers in Mystic
Summer brings a wave of visitors to Mystic, where the bright sunshine and warm afternoons invite long walks to explore the riverfront attractions, with a refreshing ice cream in hand. Daytime temperatures typically warm up into the 70s and 80s by late spring, and stay there until early fall, so boat rides out on the ocean are a pleasant endeavor for a few months of the year. If you visit in the heart of summer, you'll want to book your Mystic vacation rental early, though, as the season tends to be more popular, especially with families once schools let out.
Natural features
Get back to nature in picturesque Mystic
You don't have to wander far from the amenities of downtown Mystic to get back to nature. With the river running through the village, scattered parks just beyond the center and a number of offshore islands a short boat ride away, there are plenty of spots to explore. Head over to Haley Farm State Park and adjoining Bluff Point State Park for hiking trails and birding opportunities on more than 1,000 acres of coastal land. Bike paths here connect all the way back to the village and are convenient for heading out on cycling adventures from your Mystic vacation rental.
