The nine rocky islands several miles off the tiny New Hampshire coastline form the perfect day trip for an adventurous family. With a history that includes shipwrecks, pirates and even a grisly murder back in 1873, there is something to excite every imagination. Now, the islands are mostly deserted with the exception of seabirds and hiking trails. Bring a picnic lunch and soak in the sun and the sea on a summer afternoon and you’ll be convinced you’ve found paradise.
