Rhode Island’s Block Island is on the Nature Conservancy’s list of “The Last Great Places” and it is easy to see why. The island’s only town is home to a variety of popular summer vacation activities including sailing, hiking, fishing, cycling, and beach combing. The island is also home to several large sailing and yachting competitions and celebrations. Approximately 20 percent of the island has been set aside for conservation efforts, maintaining an undeveloped nature area that is enjoyed by local wildlife and vacationers alike.
Block Island is accessible by air and by boat. There is regular ferry service available, and trips range from 35 to 90 minutes. Flights are considerably faster, some taking as little as 12 minutes.
