Fishers Island History & Culture

In 1879, that first extension of Island services connected Fishers Island to the mainland through a cable ferry service between Winnipauk Village and Groton Long Point, operated by Captain John P. Brown of Mystic. Besides freight and vehicles, this ferry also transported passengers who could disembark at either port and walk onto the mainland or Island.

In 1904, Captain Daniel Hand established a new passenger/vehicle ferry from Orient Point to Fisher’s Island with a layover in New London. This was an essential change for Islanders since it gave them more accessible admission to points west. You can get to the island using a boat or plane from Connecticut or Rhode Island, but not from Long Island.

Fisher’s Island is nine miles long and two miles wide, but it’s full of charming sights and activities for visitors to enjoy despite its diminutive dimensions.
