• Lupine Festival: The fourth annual Lupine Art Festival, planned by the Eastport Area Chamber of Commerce for June 2004, will be one of the first celebrations of the summer. At this time the pink, blue, and purple flowers of the wild lupine will cover Eastport. It may be tempting to dig a few plants for your own garden, but please don't. They are very difficult to transplant successfully.

Many locations in Eastport have free copies of a map detailing the Eastport/Lubec Quoddy Loop vicinity. Carry one with you. This map details roads and ferry routes connecting the entire area. You'll enjoy each of these day trips more fully if you have a camera and binoculars always at hand. At every turn you have the opportunity for a moose to appear, an eagle to soar overhead, or some other breathtaking sight to awaken your senses. Many days you'll want a sweater or sweatshirt within easy reach. Bring along water and food so you'll have the freedom to explore in every direction.
