What to See & Do
on Block Island RI

Most people coming to Block Island are looking for an easy schedule, quiet relaxation, time at the beach, bicycle trips, and seafood dinners.

 

Beaching and bicycling are two favorite activities on Block Island, but you can also go on fishing voyages, or just wander the streets of Old Harbor lookingin the little shops.

At some point in the day, you'll want to relax in a cafe or restaurant with a view of the harbor and the sea.

Block Island's beaches are among its prime attractions: beautiful, accessible and fun. More...

To get to the beaches, to get your exercise, and to explore the natural beauty of Block Island, a bicycle tour is the best way, although mopeds and motor scooters are also available if you'd rather not pedal. More...

A few small art galleries and craft shops are good for a browse.

The island has a cinema and a number of cocktail lounges and night clubs, mostly in the hotels.

Fishing
Several marinas on the island have fishing boats for hire, and surfcasting for striped bass, bluefish and other delicacies is popular.

Even if you're alone, the marina staff may be able to get together a party to go out, thereby reducing your costs greatly.

For details, drop by any one of the marinas. All the boat-rental and sport-fishing businesses operate out of New Harbor.
