Newport Onshore is the perfect home base for your Newport vacation. The harbor and marina are right in your front yard. When you want to join the seafaring fun, you can rent equipment or charter boats close by. For swimmers, public beaches are about two miles away, or you can use the resort's indoor/outdoor pool. Newport is filled with 19th-century mansions open for public tours. Newport's history dates back to the 1700s, and more than 400 pre- Revolutionary War homes are in the area. After you've seen Newport's past, visit the crafts shops along the waterfront that are within easy walking distance.
