Review:
If you're coming to Block Island looking to ride the waves, Black Rock is the place to be.
This is the best surfing beach on Block Island, with very big waves and choppy conditions that are just right for experienced surfers.
The beach is named after a huge black rock at the far end and is closely linked with Vaill Beach, which is another good surfing spot.
If you're not interested in heading out on the waves, this is still a pretty, secluded little beach that offers breathtaking views, especially in the evenings as the sun starts to set. Black Rock Map
