Enjoy a perfect New England summer day amongst the Isles of Shoals, a scatter of small islands between New Hampshire and Maine. In this season 3 segment of “Weekends with Yankee” (episode 302), we depart Portsmouth, New Hampshire, for Star Island, the only island that can be reached by commercial boat services. The island was once the busiest fishing port on the East Coast but is now known for its stunning, unblemished ocean views. We stop at the Oceanic Hotel to take in the beauty of the island before returning to the mainland.
