Report Review
We decided to stay on one of the New London Waterfront well-maintained moorings to ride out the forecasted high winds from Hurricane Lee as it passed offshore and we were please with the entire experience. The mooring field is well protected from all sides, especially North, but the fetch from all other directions is short and would have been safe even in low to moderate tropical storm winds. Restrooms and showers were clean and downtown offers a good selection of excellent restaurants, bars, entertainment and shopping. The Garde Arts Center, Customs House Maritime Museum, annual Maritime Festivals featuring visiting Tall Ships, and many colonial era buildings round out the historical and cultural opportunities that make this City worth visiting.
