In our ongoing effort to work with local officials regarding Block Island’s Shelter-In-Place Order that includes travel restrictions, we will be adjusting our ferry schedule to best accommodate essential travel needs.
Effective Saturday, March 28, we are reducing our scheduled trips to and from Block Island.
This reduced schedule will run through April 15, 2020.
