Apresentação geral
Block Island
Island of cliffs, beaches, lighthouses, meadows and coastal paths accessible by ferry.
Mohegan Bluffs, Southeast Lighthouse and Great Salt Pond give the most telling landmarks on Block Island. Together, they form a destination where the island landscapes, the coastline and natural spaces meet, with atmospheres that change over the stages rather than a single uniform decor.
Ver tudo
For a stay of 2 to 4 days, it is better to balance visits and travel times. Also to be anticipated: weather dependent ferry and few out-of-season services. A car is usually the easiest way to connect the different sectors. Accessibility varies from site to site and deserves to be verified step by step.

Fales
Mohegan Bluffs
Mohegan Bluffs high cliffs of clay above a exposed beach, with a strong sensation of verticality as soon as the stairs descend. The site gives a dramatic reading of Block Island, useful for understanding its relationship to wind and mobile coastline.
Phare
Southeast Lighthouse
Southeast Lighthouse stands at the edge of the cliffs in a brick tower linked to an episode of erosion and historical displacement. The approach allows us to grasp in concrete terms the fragility of the shore while repositioning the building in its role of coastal guidance.
Lagoon
Great Salt Pond
Great Salt Pond forms a large, welcoming indoor lagoon for sailing boats and light boats, far from the frontality of cliffs. The soft shores offer a more protected reading of the island: silence, inland water and contrasts with exposed areas.
Range
Mansion Beach
Mansion Beach offers a sandy strip more laid than the areas near the landing, with a clear horizon and regular waves. It is an effective slowing range when you want to keep the whole day in a simple but well structured environment.
