The city prides itself on its granite mining heritage and is a haven for antique shopping, historians, and people looking for great food.
In particular, you should keep a slot on your schedule for Summer Pops concert in June and their First Night celebrations at New Year's. Their excellent red-tile-roofed library has a historical document section that would tempt any history buff.
South from downtown Westerly on 1A will take you toward the summertime favorite, Watch Hill, with its beaches, flying horses carrousel (they call it a "merry-go-round") historic homes, and Watch Hill Lighthouse.
A well-maintained railway station sits at the north end of downtown and a small airport is east of town for private planes. Route 1 (Post Road) travels through the city, but by road, the easist path is from Exit 92 from I-95 in Connecticut, which will take you to Route 1 just west of the state line. Turn left and cross the river to get to downtown Westerly.
