It isn’t summer in New England without ice cream, fried clams, and lobster rolls. Never be without the trifecta of essential beach fare with this map close at hand, which highlights classic destinations throughout the region, touching on Cape Cod, Massachusetts' North Shore, Rhode Island, New Hampshire, and a tiny bit of Maine.
Some are BYOB, some feature amusements like mini golf, and most have waterfront views. Whichever you pick, you'll find a casual ambiance (often outdoors) and traditional beach-friendly foods like fried seafood and soft-serve.
