Taste of Block Island

Come sample our delicious food, charming lodgings, pristine  beaches, fun-filled activities, unique shopping, all delivered to you with our warm island hospitality.  Take advantage of the many discounts offered on this very special weekend! This remarkable event is organized with one main objective in mind: to offer our guests a taste of what Block Island is really about and make you fall in love with it!  We want you to make it your island, too.

Our tenth Annual Summer Taste of Block Island will showcase  many different events and activities island visitors can enjoy - from kayak, taxi and farm tours to wine and beer tastings and a chance to design your very own ice cream sundae. Shops will offer discounts, lodging packages will be available and restaurant specials will abound. There will be a wide range of events taking place all around the island - we think that everyone will find something that caters to their interests!   You can participate in or watch the free Baggo Tournament.  Or take a leisurely ride around the island in a taxi, with your driver telling you of island lore and legends.  For more historical information, take a tour of the Historical Society or the Southeast Lighthouse.
