Plenty of parts go into creating the perfect day. That first cup of coffee. Walking along the beach, breathing in the salt-scented air all around. Kicking your feet up to the evening breeze, your drink of choice acting as a nightcap and resting comfortably within arm’s reach. All after filling up on one of your favorite meals.
When you live so close to the water – or surrounded by it, in Block Island’s case – it becomes a part of you. The culture is molded by it, with borders fitted perfectly to every rise and fall of the tide.
While you may have explored a good bit of Block Island’s vast and different landscapes, there’s a good chance you haven’t experienced everything that the ocean around it has to offer. One of those experiences is surfing. And Block Island has some of the best places around to paddle out and meet your new favorite hobby.
Landmarks are often used as a reference point. Something to guide travelers along their way and let them know they’re heading in the right direction. They become ingrained in the culture that surrounds them. They are as much a part of a community as the people who keep it going. In the case of Block Island, there’s one local landmark that’s taken on a unique life all its own.
