Nature & Beaches

Nature Preserve »

Open year-round, the Denison Pequotsepos Nature Center is a wildlife sanctuary, natural history museum and enviro-education hub all built into one. Kids can get a close-up view of live frogs, fish, turtles and snakes safely nestled in the museum or take a walk with the parents to see and discover the animals in their natural habitat.

Beaches »

While Mystic itself doesn't have beaches, some of the Northeast's nicest (and least crowded) dot the Rhode Island coastline, just a few miles north.
