Boston is famous for its icy temperatures in the winter, so spring is a welcome change in this historic city. Now that there’s a chance to get outside and enjoy the warmer weather, where do you start? If you’re ready to experience the more generous side of the city, keep reading for the best activities to do in Boston this spring.
Go Boating
The Charles River runs right through Boston, so take advantage of a new way to sightsee! If you don’t own your own or visit the city, consider renting a kayak or canoe and taking a tour along the water. You’ll be able to explore the river and its surroundings for a few hours, and if you leave in the morning, by the time you’re done, you’ll be ready for a cool splash in the river. If you want a more challenging endeavor, consider taking a sailing lesson and explore the river like a pro!
Dine Outdoors
Springtime in Boston is perfect for eating and drinking outdoors. If you’re looking for the best seats with a fun ambiance, head to Davis Square, the center of Boston’s food scene. Here, you’ll be able to find everything from authentic Italian to Irish pubs to a classic American burger. With lots of patio seating at a variety of bars and restaurants, you’ll be able to kick back and enjoy a lovely Boston evening.
Bike the City
Bicycle rentals are becoming more and more popular in tourist areas worldwide and for a good reason! Biking is a great way to see any new city. You’ll get to see more sites than if you were walking, and you don’t miss anything like you would if you were in a car or bus! You can pick up a 24-hour pass that will allow you to pick up and drop off bikes at designated stations as you need them, so you can take your time going where you want. Check out the Freedom Trail, the Esplanade on the Charles River, or a city park!
The Isabella Steward Gardner Museum
It might sound counterintuitive to visit a museum on a fine spring day in Boston, but this museum is different. After you’ve viewed the weird and wonderful collection of art inside, you can stroll through the private gardens. If you come in early spring, you’ll get to see the vivid orange blossoms of the nasturtium vines.
