About Payne’s Dock

We Always Have Room For One More!

Payne’s Dock has been a Block Island landmark for decades. Family run and owned for generations. The last family owned and managed dock/marina on Block island. Located at the south end of the Great zew Harbor, we are easy to get to and accessible for vessels up to 300’.

Block Island is located in the Block Island Sound very close to Newport, Long Island, Connecticut and is very easy to get in and out of. There are many fun things to do on Block Island: great beaches, bike riding, hiking and walks, boating and kayaking, or just enjoy a cocktail and a gorgeous sunset.
