An alternative method to renting a car/catching a ride with someone is taking the Northeast Regional Amtrak Train. Amtrak departs from both Boston & Providence, & makes stops in both Westerly, RI (WSY) & Mystic, CT (MYS).
The Westerly Amtrak Train Station is located right in Downtown Westerly, within walking distance of coffee shops, restaurants, Wilcox Park, & shopping.
The Mystic Amtrak Train Station is within walking distance of Downtown Mystic, right along the river with many shops & food options.
Another option to get from both TF Green Airport & Boston Logan Airport is to hop on the “T.”
FYI: if you choose to take the “T,” you will need to plan for a ride from Wickford Junction, which is about 40 minutes by car from Westerly…TF Green Airport is about 45 minutes from Westerly. This option is likely more for those needing transportation from Boston.
From Boston Logan Airport, you would either Uber/Lyft or take the SL1 bus to South Station. From South Station, you will take the Providence/Stoughton Line Outbound to Wickford Junction. Wickford Junction is about a 40 minute car ride from Westerly.
