Connecticut accommodation from NZ$169

Have you ever dreamt of being a heroic sea captain, gazing into the horizon at a distant lighthouse? No? Neither have we. It’s probably easier (and safer) to just see the lighthouses from land anyway. And with our deals on holidays to Connecticut, you’ll have plenty of them to explore without having to invest in the full captain’s costume. You’ll still get a feel for it as you stroll the Mystic Seaport in search of a worthy vessel. Or ditch the maritime theme altogether and soak in the refinement of Yale University Art Gallery. If fun, kitschy nostalgia is more to your tastes, sample all the classic candy flavours at the Pez Visitors’ Centre.

Things to Do in Connecticut

With Connecticut accommodation located all over the state and near all the things you want to see, you can enjoy everything the state has in store for you. Explore Lake Compounce—the oldest amusement park in the country—Beardsley Zoo or the Mystic Aquarium, for starters. If that doesn’t satisfy your need for watery adventure, head out for a splashy afternoon at Pleasure Beach. Perfect your “pretend archaeologist” selfie game at Dinosaur State Park and Arboretum, followed by a piping hot fritter made with apples from the state’s famous orchards. Remember to visit historic Yale University while you’re here!
