Situated in the northeast of the country and famously the landing site of the Pilgrims, New England is a region comprising six American states. It is known for its quaint villages, lush forests, rugged coastline and rich history. The most popular time to travel here is during the autumn, when the forests are ablaze with deep golden, amber and red hues. However, this is a rewarding destination year-round, where visitors can enjoy white sand beaches, expansive lakes, soaring mountains, delicious seafood and landmark lighthouses. Explore the ‘home of witchcraft’ at Salem, hike through the scenic Acadia National Park, take a whale-watching cruise, see the magnificent mansions in Newport or catch
fresh lobster.
