Make the Most of Your Block Island Stay

A preserved island escape

Block Island rises from the Atlantic 13 miles off Rhode Island's coast, where Victorian hotels overlook dramatic clay bluffs and miles of protected conservation land. The Nature Conservancy designated this 7-mile-long island as one of the Last Great Places in the Western Hemisphere. You won't find traffic lights or chain stores here—just weathered shingle cottages, 2 historic lighthouses, and stone walls recalling the island's 1661 English settlement. The Mohegan Bluffs command attention on the southern shore, where 150-foot clay cliffs drop to secluded beaches accessible by a 141-step wooden staircase.

Maritime culture and refined dining

Old Harbor serves as the island's heart, where ferries dock near Water Street's shops and restaurants in preserved 19th-century buildings. New Harbor on Great Salt Pond attracts boaters to its protected anchorage with waterfront establishments offering sunset views. The culinary scene balances casual seafood spots with elevated options like Restaurant 1661's champagne buffet and Winfield's contemporary New England cuisine.

Getting there and exploring

The Block Island Ferry operates year-round from Point Judith, with seasonal service from Newport and New London. New England Airlines provides 12-minute flights from Westerly. Bicycles and mopeds are preferred for exploring Crescent Beach, Rodman's Hollow trails, and Clay Head's coastal paths.
