The country roads east from Horseneck Beach lead to Padanaram, home
since 1938 of the famous Concordia sailing yawls and a haven for small
boat sailors.
Back in 1898, an event largely overlooked occurred near here when retired
China Trade Sea Captain Joshua Slocum returned after a three-year solo
circumnavigation of the globe in his 37-foot oyster sloop, Spray, the first ever
solo voyage around the world. He wrote an ingenuous no-frills adventure yarn
in vigorous prose sure to please.
From Horseneck Beach drive 20 miles north and find Fall River, a onetime
mill city that attracts travelers with its factory outlets and the steel-hulled
warships at the floating museum of Battleship Cove. There you can tour the
Battleship Massachusetts, the Submarine Lionfish, the Destroyer J P
Kennedy, two PT boats, and a Russian guided-missile cruiser . Nearby,
outlet malls occupy old mill buildings.

Just eight miles north of Horseneck Beach State Park you find the Westport Rivers Vineyard and
Winery where they conduct wine tours that include the processing rooms and a tasting gathered around their
herb garden.
Special events include a Chef's demonstration of pairing of wines and foods that include a gourmet meal
served with the appropriate wines. The rolling hills bathed in coastal mist in the morning have a climate akin
to that of northern France and produce white wines.
Drive six miles north of Horseneck Beach State Park and find the village of Westport Point. You can see
the house of Stephen Davis, 1770, once a designer of ship hulls, John Head, 1776, builder of colonial homes,
and Gideon Davis an 1827 Captain of a whaling square rigger. The preserved homes of the 19th Century
seafarers line the narrow main street terminating at the docks from where the whalers once sailed the world
and now lobstermen and gill-netters coax a living from the sea.
On this road a few miles north find Lee's Market, great coffee, a huge wine list, and free WiFi

At Little Compton Commons you will see a New England village that retains the flavor
of the old New England seacoast whaling villages and farming communities. The
common’s white clapboard church, the tallest building in town, looms over the center of
the green surrounded by old gravestones wreathed in a patina of lichen beneath
shading maples. Untroubled by civilization, the Commons is not unusual in this region
deliberately out of step with the modern world.
Another good stop along the way would be to Adamsville. Legend has it that rum
runners once rowed up the estuary in the dark of night to deliver illegal whisky near the
gristmill in an era that gave the town the name, Valley of Sin.
Lamplights line the street where two general stores, the Barn Restaurant, (good stop
for Breakfast) and several gift shops surround the plaque honoring the region’s
development of the Rhode Island Red, a variety of rooster world renown.
