Put down the glue and scissors and step away from that travel vision board. It’s time to make your #holidaygoals come to life in Essex, Old Saybrook! With some brilliant things to see and do here, it's easy to understand why 11,000 people call this city home. From the centre of the city, Essex is located 6 kilometres to the north. You'll most likely be coming in via Bradley International Airport, so after you've found your suitcase you'll need to head 70 kilometres to the south.
This city has no shortage of sensational things to do, and you'll uncover many of them near Essex. It's no simple task to pick the top sights, but Tanger Outlets and the Ivoryton Playhouse are a couple you shouldn't miss. You should also make sure to stop by the Katharine Hepburn Cultural Arts Center and Harvey's Beach. For a better perspective of this lively city as a whole, spend time in the nearby neighbourhoods of Centerbrook and Ivoryton.
There's no saying what you'll find while strolling around the engaging exhibits at the Essex Steam Train, the Museum of Fife and Drum and the Mashantucket Pequot Museum & Research Center. If you don't want to miss anything, don't be afraid to pick the brains of the friendly staff.

Whether you're looking to relax with a book or hang out with some friends, the nearby green spaces are delightful places to be. Choose from either Plattwood Park and Crystal Lake Town Park.
Quite often, the easiest way to meet the locals is by checking out the shops. Make sure you stop by Saybrook Country Barn, Logee’s Greenhouses, Essex Saybrook Antique Village Shopping Center and Essex Plaza Shopping Center.
