The Island City

Eastport is an island city -- comprised entirely of islands! Moose Island is the largest, with Carlow, Dog, Treat, Burial, Spectacle, Matthews, Goose, Dyer, and numerous islets making up the remainder.

Although islands, Moose Island is connected, by way of a tidal-dam causeway (built during the never-completed Quoddy Tidal Power Project of the 1930s) to Carlow Island, which is in turn similarly connected to Pleasant Point Passamaquoddy Reservation (known to the Passamaquoddy as "Sipayik" [pronounced "zih-by'-ihg") on the mainland.

And, in the summertime, Moose Island is connected by way of toll ferry to Deer Island. For those travelling further, another toll ferry sails to Campobello Island, while a free government ferry operates between Butler Point in Lambertville on Deer Island and L'Etete on the New Brunswick mainland.

A Port City

Being surrounded by deep water, Eastport has historically been a significant port for shipping. (Another port facility in the Quoddy Loop exists at Bayside, New Brunswick, just north of St. Andrews.) Formerly, the municipal pier was utilized by ocean-going freighters to transport products to foreign ports. Now, there is a new port facility at Estes Head, which can simultaneously accommodate two ships at the pier. The vast majority of products shipped are forest products, such as paper and paper pulp, although other cargo is sometimes shipped. The people who serve this port have an international reputation for efficiency, resulting in the facility exceeding its designed capacity by many times! (See the Eastport Port Authority's website.)

When a ship is in port, the massive vessels are visibly apparent from near the downtown area of Lubec.

'Way Down East

Eastport is the most easterly City in the United States. (Lubec is the easternmost town, as well as the easternmost point -- at Sail Rock just offshore from West Quoddy Lighthouse -- in the U.S.) Being such, every Fourth of July, Eastport holds the nation's first flag raising in the United States. The ceremony takes place on the municipal pier at sunrise--around 4:45 am!

The View!
Mermaid sculpture

Mermaid sculpture on Eastport downtown shore walk
by Eastport sculptor Richard Cliver

Sunrise and sunset in Eastport -- like at many other locations on the Quoddy Loop -- are frequently awe-inspiring! Notable vantage points include:

Downtown -- Views of Campobello Island (including the Roosevelt Cottage, the Hubbard House, and Friar's Head), little Cherry Island Lighthouse, the F.D. Roosevelt Memorial International Bridge, and both the Mulholland Light and the "Sparkplug." From this side of the island, and for the early riser, "sunrise over Campobello" can be admired.

Carryingplace Cove -- Magnificent sunsets over Cobscook Bay and vast intertidal clam flats.

Shackford Head at Shackford Head State Park -- A panoramic view of the world's larges Atlantic salmon aquaculture operation, Cobscook Bay, and Campobello Island.

Canadian or American?

During the War of 1812, the islands and mainland of the area were claimed by both Great Britain and the United States. A shotless battle occurred at Eastport's then-existing Fort Sullivan, when the British Navy sailed in and threatened the island. With overwhelming troop strength, and without a shot fired, they siezed the fort and Moose Island, renaming the fort "Fort Sherbrooke," and building some additional defenses. Being held by British troops for four years, the Treaty of Ghent settled the local boundary between Canada and the United States, making Eastport American, once again.

Old Home Week / Independence Day Celebration

During the first few days of July each year, Eastport has an annual Old Home Week celebration, with activities to celebrate and entertain former and current residents, as well as the largest 4th of July Parade in Maine! The celebrations include lots of activities and entertainment, visitation by a Navy ship (nearly every year), and fireworks on the evening of July 4th. Be sure to visit the Eastport 4th of July Committee's website, which lists the latest details of the celebrations.


Farms at Sea

Maine's first sardine canning business began here, but now Eastport and the surrounding Maine and New Brunswick communities make up the North American capital for Atlantic salmon aquaculture, where salmon are grown in sea pens (also known as salmon aquaculture sites).

Another sea farming operation, the first commercial Nori seaweed (used in sushi) production and processing facility in North America began here.

Todd House

Built (circa 1775) on Todd's Head during the Revolutionary War, the Todd House is a classic New England full cape with massive center chimney and a unique "good morning" staircase.

In 1801, in what is now a guest room, Eastern Lodge No. 7 of the Masonic Order was chartered; cornerstone marks the event.

Breakfast is served in the common room before a huge fireplace and bake oven, in surroundings reminiscent of the revolutionary era.

The Todd House, owned by a local historian and educator, has in its library many volumes of local history.

Its rooms are furnished with period antiques and enhanced by a collection of local historic artifacts.

The spacious yard, with its cook-out facilities, affords an ever-changing view of the bay and its islands. Glorious sunrises and sunsets enhance the natural beauty of the area.

Handicapped accessible. Children and pets are welcome!
