"The last great place"
Block
Island, nestled in the Atlantic 12 miles from coastal Rhode Island,
offers the vacationer what does not seem possible anymore - simple
relaxation in a startling beautiful place. The Island is famous for
its miles of free public beaches, sparkling clear waters, dramatic
bluffs, preserved open spaces, and fun-filled activities for visitors
of all ages. Block Island has long been a haven for residents and
visitors who have found here a quality of life that recalls the
pleasures of a life that is simpler, slower, and somehow, more
carefree. It's no wonder that the Nature Conservancy has designated
Block Island "One of the 12 last great places in the Western
Hemisphere."
