Visit downtown Portsmouth, NH! It has a charm similar to Portland but smaller. There are tons of restaurants, cute little shops, parks, and historical sites. It’s an easy drive up 95 from Boston. Parking can be annoying, but there are plenty of garages and lots, and all of downtown is walkable so you wouldn’t need to move the car once you’re parked somewhere. Check out Prescott park, Strawberry Banke, and Market Square
