    Great video of Block Island ! We are lucky enough to live there , the entire year! Never intended to live there, bought a farmhouse on the Island to use as a vacation house and we soon found out that it was difficult to leave. It's really a special place !

    I grew up in Rhode Island and always thought Block Island was sort of overrated and touristy, but of course as a kid I had no knowledge of or appreciation for the nature preserve. Anyway seeing the beach roses in bloom in your video made me so homesick I can barely stand it. Next time I'm there I will certainly appreciate Block Island more. Rhode Island really is a magical place.

    I was born and raised in RI but left at age 18. I have 4 younger sisters and visit every summer. The highlights of the visit is a clambake at my sister’s, trip to Crescent Park Carousel, Narragansett Beach, and Newport. I have made an attempt to keep up my relationship with my New England relatives. In other parts of the country many people have never known anyone from RI. I can at a moment’s notice give at least an hour discourse on the smallest state with the longest name!

    I would also add the parking at Point Judith isn’t so plentiful. They’re all privately owned lots and do fill up pretty early on busy summer days (Fri-Sun). I’ve missed a ferry before being unable to find parking, getting there a half hour early. My fault for assuming it was field of parking lots, but just a heads up

    I was there couple year ago. Best place on earth. If you go to the police station and get a fire permit, will cost you little money ,, you can just go to certain part of the island and make your fire, no need to bring wood, you find it very easy on the beach. We dit it , great experience.

    Great video of a unique place under the radar.Great for a meditative getaway. I heard there was a nude beach there back in the 1980’s and 1990’s but I don’t know if it’s still there or perhaps it’s in a remote part of the Island. Anyway, very well done video.
