private events & tours 

SPECIAL EVENTS

Rose Island is a incredible backdrop for events including small weddings, corpoate retreats, and private parties. Our maximum capacity during bird nesting season (March 1 - August 15) is 60 ppl. After August 15, we can host events with a maximum of 125 people. See our FAQ below. Reach out to us at info at roseisland.org or call the office for more information.

PRIVATE TOURS

Most visitors coming for a daily tour arrive on the Jamestown-Newport Ferry in season. But we also do take request for private island and lighthouse tours for up to 12 people aboard our launch boat Rose. All tours begin with a pickup from Fort Adams (or other Newport locations by request) and usually last 1.5 hours. Guests are invited to bring a picnic and BYOB on board. We provide the cooler. Please reach out to our office for more information and to schedule.
