NEW ENGLAND — New England is home to many beautiful areas and worlds away from the big cities are small towns filled with treasure.

Love Exploring recently came out with its “most adorable small town in every US state” list.

The list includes dinky towns with slow-paced life where you can relax and not worry about what else is going on.

Here are the most adorable small towns in New England:

Connecticut: Mystic

Best known as the setting for the 1988 film Mystic Pizza this Connecticut port town has a lot to offer. From walking down the 18th-century style Olde Mistick Village to visiting four National Historic Landmark ships Mystic has a variety of things to explore.

Maine: Camden

Nicknamed the ‘Jewel of the Maine Coast’, according to Love Exploring, “Camden is a quintessential seaside town with a charming harbour, an old lighthouse, jagged rock bays and the opportunity for sunset cruises.” Visitors can enjoy hiking and a meal at one of the town’s many coastal restaurants.

Massachusetts: Rockport

This coastal town is located on the Cape Ann peninsula and is surrounded by beautiful beaches. Rockport is also home to Motif Number 1 – a red fishing shack often cited as the most-painted building in America.
