It's just a bunch of tourists gawking at gilded age mansions. After 10 minutes I was ready to GTHO

The Cliff Walk is great. Thanes St for shopping is good . Eat and Drink at Brick Alley Pub. How long are you staying?

Tennis Hall of Fame is there. Also, take a drive up Ocean Drive if you have a car.

If you go to The Breakers get there early and there should be plenty of parking spots. When we left about noon people were circling the lot looking for a space. We went in late July a few years ago.

We also went to Rough Point; Doris Duke’s mansion. It was much less crowded. I asked the staff about Doris killing her interior decorator; don’t think they appreciated that question.

If you get tired of looking at mansions the Lizzie Borden house is about 30 minutes away in Fall River, MA.

Walk the Cliff Walk.
It is an easy path and you see the back yards of the big mansions on one side and the Atlantic Ocean with the waves crashing against the rocks on the other.
That is my favorite thing to do there.
