The Block Island Chamber of Commerce can answer many of your questions about local services. You'll see their Visitor Center right near the ferry dock, off Water Street, as your ferry comes into Old Harbor. The Visitor Center includes public toilets as well as lockers in case you want to leave stuff here while you ride bikes around the island or go to the beach. Block Island was chartered as the Town of New Shoreham in 1672 (here's more Block Island history).
