We have vacationed on PI every summer since 1993. One basic requirement - plan on entertaining your family with swimmmimg hiking or just relaxing. Other than Marcie's general store and Freddies "market" there are no "commercial" facilities on PI.

Walking trails criss cross the island are well marked and maintained by volunteers. Check everybody for ticks upon returning to your cottage. Visiting the old cemetary, the Indian spring, the narragansett bay research center are interesting. Best swimming is at "sandy beach" on the islands northern end facing the SW.

Also good are the beach nearby the lighthouse at Sandy Point and the small (but middy at low tide) beach at the T dock.

Good fishing off of the T dock and the stone dock. This years Fireman's Fair is Saturday 16 Aug. Meeting the ferry arrival appears to be a hobby enjoyed by the "locals"

Regards, Tony & Vi
