Sunrise and sunset in Connecticut
July 18, 2022
We love long road trips in Connecticut, but there’s also something to be said for a single day of fun. If you’re looking to spend the whole day enjoying the Nutmeg State, we’ve got Connecticut Sunrise to Sunset just for you.
The total journey time is less than an hour, so it won’t take you all day and you’ll be home before bedtime! You’ll be able to witness both a sunrise and a sunset at two different beaches, and you’ll have plenty of time to relax at each destination before heading to the next.
Silver Sands State Park, 1 Silver Sands Pkwy, Milford, CT 06460, USA
Note that the Silver Sands parking lot doesn’t open until 8am, so you’ll have to park elsewhere and walk a few blocks to reach the beach. The views are more than worth the effort, though. You have plenty of time to relax at the beach before your next stop, so relax for a while. The park has many walking areas.
