Enjoy a panoramic drive through Eastport, Maine. Your local guide offers an impressive knowledge of local history.
In the heart of historic downtown Eastport, you will hear tales of the Great Fire and learn about the working waterfront.
Watch for Raye's Mustard Mill and learn why mustard is a critical part of Eastport's history. This mustard mill is the last working ground-mustard mill in the United States.
View Shackford Head State Park from the trailhead and an aquaculture site just offshore.
You will visit a working lobster pound and processing facility with commanding views of the city. Learn about Eastport's fishing industry, attempts at harnessing the tide for electricity, and the Old Sow -- the Western Hemisphere's largest whirlpool. Passamaquoddy Native American culture is alive and well here, and the stories of the Roosevelts and their ties to the area are quite fascinating.
Notes:
Wear comfortable walking shoes. In the event the tour operator is able to secure a visit to the Waponahki Museum & Resource Center, the tour duration will be extended by 30 minutes.
