Things To See & Do!



Measuring just 12km from bow to stern, Deer Island, reached by FREEE car ferry from L'Etete on the southeast shore of Passamaquoddy Bay is dotted with the tiniest of fishing villages, strung along a road that provides charming views of hill and dale. In Northern Harbor, the island boasts the world's largest lobster pound while Deer Island Point, at the southern tip, overlooks a narrow sound where it's possible to see and sometimes hear the famous whirlpool known as the Old Sow (largest in the Western Hemisphere - possibly the world!). It's caused by the Fundy tides as they sweep round the island and is at its peak three hours before high tide.

While visiting our picturesque little island, there are a number of things to see and do, including;
