Block Island Yacht Charters

Block Island is just south of mainland Rhode Island. Its 1800s red-brick Southeast Lighthouse sits atop the dramatic clay cliffs of Mohegan Bluffs, with a rocky beach below. Sandy beaches include the famous Crescent Beach.

The island’s northern tip features North Lighthouse, built in 1867, and Sachem Pond, home to gulls and swallows. Migratory songbirds visit the National Wildlife Refuge. Make Block Island part of a Newport to Portland, Maine itinerary.
