Planning your Visit Attire everywhere on the Island is casual. If you are on medication make sure you have enough on hand for your stay as there is no Island pharmacy. As elsewhere in New England forests, there are mosquitoes and poison ivy along trails. Ticks have been found carrying Lyme disease and an occasional hiker has been infected. Avoid such nuisances by wearing long pants with your socks pulled up over their bottoms, and use insect repellents.
Space is limited.
There is no bank on the Island, although there s an ATM at the Barnacle Cafe on the dock. Personal checks are accepted at the discretion of proprietors. Travelers checks are honored, and some places accept credit cards. Public telephones are coinless and require phone credit cards even for local calls. A few guest boat moorings are available for short term and overnight mooring.
