With its turquoise waters, natural expanses and Victorian charm, Block Island is a one-of-a-kind destination. Enjoy these photos from a Block Island summer day.
In 1896, Women's Christian Temperance Movement members erected this statue of Rebecca at the Well on Block Island's Water Street. It was ironically later discovered that the statue is actually of Hebe- -cupbearer for the Greek gods.
