Now internationally recognized for top-shelf squid, Point Judith, Rhode Island was established as a popular “hub” in the early 80s. Along with its unique harbor-side vacation sites and activities, Point Judith can coin itself as the first port on the East Coast to have an influx of fresh squid supply.
Town Dock strategically chose Point Judith to focus our efforts in a location that we know and trust to deliver an outstanding experience for our customers shortly after its establishment as a popular landing area. Our integrated team of fisherman and on-site staff have since worked to create the freshest experience by taking extra care in the handling of the product, storing the product in the best conditions to preserve freshness, and maximizing the shelf- life and quality of the fish with untraditionally shorter fishing trips.
With sustained efforts, and dedicated fisherman, Point Judith has been named “The squid capital of the East Coast”. We’re proud to have contributed to the market growth of clean frozen squid and whole dirty squid to a level where it’s economically stable to maintain and grow.
Point Judith also exhibits a variety of fresh seafood options including mainstay monkfish, cod, flounder, groundfish, whiting and red hake, offered only at their seasonality peaks, to ensure the best of quality.
