Block Island is a destination with beaches in mind: there are a variety of public and private beaches located around the island. Favorite include Crescent Beach, stretching several miles from the Old Harbor, or Dory’s Cove Beach, off of West Side Road.

With very quiet country side roads and nature preserves, Block Island is a walker and biker’s paradise. There are 40 miles of marked trails, several starting next to the New Harbor’s marina, such as the Greenway trails. Bikes can be rented everywhere, including at the marinas.
Don’t miss the cliffs of Mohegan Bluffs, on the southern end of the island. The beach below can be accessed going down several flights of steep stairs. The island’s North and South light houses are also a must see.

Award winning spacious and pristine spa, ideally located by the waterfront. Wide range of facial, body, nail treatments and massages. Serene water-inspired décor, very friendly and experienced team. Guests of the spa can enjoy complimentary access to the two story health club, which includes the sauna, whirlpool, racquetball courts and indoor pool.
Sun-Wed 9am-5pm; Thur-Sat 9am-7pm.
