RI Charter Boat Ports of Call

Our captains fish Narragansett Bay, Block Island, Point Judith, and the RI south shore.

Either trailering or located at a local marina, any one of our five captains can show you a great time on the water.  Close to the the fishing port of Galilee and Point Judith.

In this section we'll go over the locations where the charter boats of these featured captains can be found.  If you  want to read about the charter services they offer, click here.

Jim's Dock.  Captain Chris, Earl, and Walter all have their boats located at Jim's Dock all season, Captain Greg moves there in October. It's a marina and restaurant in Jerusalem, RI which is 5 minutes by boat from Galilee, but 20 minutes by car.  If driving from the north, it takes no more time to reach Jim's Dock then it does to go to Galilee.  If you are coming from the south, Jim's Dock is 20 minutes closer than Galilee. There are some lobster boats at the dock too, if someone wants to save time and come to Jim's to get fresh lobsters instead of going all the way around to Galilee.  There is also less traffic during the day.  Its off the same exit as East Matunuck State Beach.

Trailered.  One of the captains, Rene, trailers his boat all the time, so he can fish upper and lower Narragansett Bay, outside Newport, Point Judith, and the entire RI south shore.

Bristol and Block Island.  Captain Greg Snow keeps his boat in Bristol on Narragansett Bay for all of May and part of June, then moves out to live and guide from Block Island from July through to September.  In October he comes back to the mainland and keeps his boat at Jim's Dock in Jerusalem with Captains Earl, Chris, and Walter.

Other Charter boats.  There are various charter boats sprinkled in small numbers in the upper and lower Bay.  Most of these are boats around 20-25 feet long, though there are some larger ones, too.

Port of Galilee.  There are no charter boats at Point Judith proper, there is actually a fleet located in Galilee.  Many Rhode Islanders think of them as being at Point Judith but that simply isn't the case.  They are mostly on Galilee Dock B.
