I-95 is the main highway that runs along the East Coast of the U.S. Since it is almost parallel to the Atlantic Ocean, you're never too far away from the beach on an I-95 road trip. Some of the major cities you'll pass through include Boston, New York, Philadelphia, Baltimore, Washington D.C., Richmond, Savannah, Jacksonville, and Miami. Here's some of the top attractions to see along I-95, from Florida to Maine.
Once you hit Rhode Island, be sure to spend some time in Newport, a gorgeous coastal city. If you can only do one thing, visit the Breakers—it's like America's version of Downton Abbey. Stroll along the Cliff Walk and check out the numerous Gilded Age mansions in this decadent neighborhood.
Newport is a nice spot to pull over for the night, with good accommodations like Forty 1° North, the Ivy Lodge bed and breakfast, and the Mill Street Inn.
Take a detour from I-95 across the state line into Massachusetts, to visit Fall River's Battleship Cove, which features the world's largest collection of World War II naval warships. You don't have to be a military history buff to marvel at the huge ships.
I-95 officially ends at the Houlton–Woodstock Border Crossing. The route continues into Canada, where you can cross the border into New Brunswick. If you want to have an international journey after this epic tour of the East Coast, just keep driving.
