Dock wisdom

·

Block Island Ferry is 5 min from Salty Brine at Point Judith -- the fastest way to the island in RI.

·

Galilee party boats are the most affordable fishing in the South County area -- a great value for first-timers.

·

Roger Wheeler kayak launch is right next door -- calm, sheltered water behind the breakwater.

·

The Point Judith Lighthouse is a 10-min walk from the beach -- don't leave without seeing it.
