History is more than books and lectures. It’s all around us. Everywhere we go, there’s something interesting to see and do. Something to learn from. Visiting historical buildings and landmarks can be an incredible educational opportunity. It transports you to another time decades and even centuries in the past. Block Island is no different. And there’s no better place to start than the lighthouses.
Block Island is for the whole family. That means your pets, too! You can bring them on both the Hi-Speed and Traditional Ferries, as long they’re either in their carrier or leashed.
The Fourth of July is more of a week-long sort of affair when you’re on Block Island. Think of it as the event that showcases everything the Block has to offer. All the sights and sounds, food and company, performances and more come together throughout the week to provide the ultimate experience. As much as the fireworks provide a celebration for the country, they also act as the perfect accent to an incredible week.
