Comment: My husband and I took the High Speed Ferry from New London to Block Island, and it was a wonderful experience! The ride offered stunning views of coastal Connecticut and New England, including glimpses of Fishers Island and Block Island’s beautiful coastline. The high-speed ferry truly cruises along, making the journey quick and enjoyable—our trip there took about 1 hour and 30 minutes, while the return was just 55 minutes!
The ferry crossing to Block Island has a rich history dating back to the early 19th century, with small packet boats originally serving the island. The service evolved over time, particularly with the formation of Interstate Navigation Company in 1933, which established year-round ferry routes. Over the years, the service has adapted to meet growing demands, including the introduction of high-speed vessels like the one we took.
Having previously only taken the ferry out of Point Judith, this experience was a significant improvement. The convenience, speed, and comfort of the New London route made it our preferred choice, and we’ll definitely be returning for another trip to Block Island soon! Highly recommended for anyone looking to enjoy a quick and scenic journey to this charming island.

Comment: Took the John F from Orient Point to here. It’s a relaxing way to travel back from New York.
We loved this ferry. It’s roll on roll off and the seating is comfortable.

Comment: Took this ferry today to see lighthouses. Part of the tour was very foggy, and the boat could not take us to all of them, but we went to other places and still got our 2 hours. The narration was very informative.
