Block Island sits about nine miles south of mainland Rhode Island in the Outer Lands coastal archipelago, coterminous with the town of New Shoreham. Named after Dutch explorer Adriaen Block, its bluffs and beaches remain a favorite New England getaway.
Its best-known feature, the Mohegan Bluffs, rises about 150 feet above the Atlantic on the island's southern shore, formed from clay, sand, and gravel deposited by glaciers during the last ice age. The island itself is a terminal moraine left by that same glacial retreat, and ongoing erosion of the soft bluffs once forced the nearby Southeast Lighthouse to be moved some 300 feet inland to keep it from toppling into the sea.
The island's Mohegan Bluffs rise roughly 150 feet above the Atlantic along its southern shore, clay cliffs carved by the same glacial retreat that shaped nearby Long Island and Martha's Vineyard. The Nature Conservancy has named Block Island one of its "Last Great Places" in the Western Hemisphere, citing the rare coastal habitat preserved by the island's slow, limited development.
