- Portsmouth is a beautiful tourist destination, with lots of interesting little shops, museums, local theater, live music and fabulous restaurants.
- Kittery is known for its shopping district, with dozens of name-brand outlets.
- Rye and Hampton Beach is another travel destination, with a boardwalk-like beach area, plenty of sand, sun, touristy shops, arcades, and a really, really cold ocean. There is also one RCI timeshare in this location.
- Hampton Falls has nothing going for it except that it is close to Steve and Maryann's house.
