Fishers Island, about long and wide, is located at the eastern end of Long Island Sound, off the southeastern coast of Connecticut across Fishers Island Sound. It is about from the tip of Long Island, from Napatree Point, Rhode Island, and Groton Long Point, Connecticut, and about southeast of New London, Connecticut, from which it is accessible by plane or regular ferry service.
The island is part of the town of Southold in Suffolk County in the U.S. state of New York. It is a census-designated place (CDP). As of the 2010 census there were 236 people living year-round on of land;〔
〕 however, the population rises to about 2,000 during peak summer weekends as throngs from Connecticut disembark on the island.

Fishers Island represents a section of the same terminal moraine that formed the North Fork of Long Island, which comes ashore at Watch Hill, Rhode Island. During the late phase of the Wisconsin glaciation, glacial Lake Connecticut formed at the retreating fore edge of the ice sheet, over what is now Long Island Sound; it formed an outlet in its moraine dam at The Race, famous for rip currents, which still separates Fishers Island from the North Fork. Fishers Island is essentially a long barrow of rocky till scoured from the surface of southern Connecticut.
