Situated 12 miles south of Rhode Island/Connecticut border, this quintessential Victorian island represents an idyllic vision of life the way it once was.  At just under 11 square miles, a visit to this unspoiled, unhurried gem is like going back 100 years in time.  Named after the Dutch navigator, Adriaen Block in the early 1600’s, it’s iconic lighthouses, magnificent harbors replete with period architecture, dramatic clay bluffs and abundant beaches, along with leafy, glacial hollows and numerous fresh water ponds, provide an amazing variety of experiences in a compact destination.  Served by ferries as well as planes, it is easily reached and provides an immersive exposure to how things used to be.  Once the capital of the whaling industry and still a major boating and fishing hub, this rural island prospered and remains a unique destination for visitors.
