If there is any type of cuisine synonymous with Rhode Island, it’s seafood. We’re called the Ocean State for a reason. With over 400 miles of coastline, it makes sense that it’s hard to drive more than five miles without finding a spot to get some delicious fresh seafood. We are so lucky to not only have access to all this fantastic food, but to have festivals that celebrate it!
The Rhode Island seafood festival is an annual tradition that locals and travelers alike look forward to every year.
