2018 Map of Block Island

About this map

New Shoreham and the larger Block Island community are meticulously charted in this 2018 survey, reflecting the complex coastal geography and maritime infrastructure of the region. The island's northern tip is anchored by North Ligth and the memorial Settlers Rock, while the central landscape is dominated by the expansive Great Salt Pond and the Block Island State Airport. Inland, the map reveals a network of historical sites including the Sheffield Cem, Island Cem, and Dodge Cem, alongside numerous freshwater bodies such as Sachem Pond and Mill Pond. The maritime connectivity of the area is highlighted by the busy ferry routes, specifically the Point Judith Ferry and the Newport - Block Island Ferry, which connect the island to the mainland. Geologic and coastal features like the Mohegan Bluffs and Clay Head illustrate the island's distinctive Atlantic shoreline.
