When to Visit

The climate in the state varies from wind, ice, and temperatures in the freezing range during the winter to bright sunny days and temperatures in the high 70s and low 80s in the summer. If you don't mind wearing a few extra layers and snuggling up close with your partner, you can enjoy sledding, skiing, and riding in a horse-drawn carriage during the winter. If you're not a fan of the cold, plan a spring or summer getaway. Spend your days wandering through the botanical gardens and checking out the flowers in bloom during the spring or lounging on the beach and feeling the sun beat down on your shoulders in the summer.

Connecticut Geography

Though Connecticut is the third smallest state based on land size, it is one of the most densely populated states in the country and in New England, with a population of more than 3.5 million residents. Located on Long Island Sound, the state boasts a number of beaches with both soft sandy shores and more rocky and hilly shores. Though Hartford and Stamford rank as the two largest cities in the state, Connecticut is also home to some quieter and more peaceful communities, including Granby and New London.
