The well-marked channel will bring you to the head of the pond where you face several marinas. Silver Spring Marine is the furthest marina on your left. The Pond has some shallow areas, so be sure to stay in the channel while navigating. The Point Judith Harbor of Refuge is only eight miles from Block Island and a short distance from Newport, Narragansett Bay and Long Island Sound. The pond is a fairly calm place to stay during a storm.
Docking is easy because there is no current and there are floating docks.
The staff monitors VHF channel 7 .
