A Rhode Island sanctuary

Sitting in the heart of Narragansett Bay, Prudence Island is a Rhode Island gem. At just under 6 square miles, it harbors little more than a lighthouse, a small store, and a jumble of gingerbread-style houses.

Ferries whisk passengers across the bay in just 25 minutes, and with less than 100 permanent residents the island feels wonderfully intimate. Dreaming of an island escape? Prudence Island vacation rentals unlock access to postcard-perfect cottages, just steps from the beach.

Slip into Prudence Island time

Standing guard on the island's eastern shores, 25-foot-high Prudence Island Light is a great place to watch the sunset. While the landmark is not open to the public, visitors are welcome to wander around the grounds or enjoy a picnic lunch. After ticking off the lighthouse, you'll be left with little more to do than slip into island time. Prudence Island vacation rentals make relaxation easy, with beautiful beachfront homes that capture the spirit of the pint-sized Rhode Island community.
