Eagle Island
Eagle Island, about three miles off the coast of Harpswell, was the summer
home of North Pole explorer, Admiral Robert E. Peary. Boat access and
visitation is available through the summer months for picnickers, nature
enthusiasts, and history buffs. The Peary family home is open for touring.
A
hiking trail also provides an opportunity to explore the 17 acre island.
Please note that all trails are closed until July 15 due to nesting birds.
Eagle Island is open between approximately between June 15 and Labor Day. The island has been designated as a Historic Site by the Maine Bureau of Parks and Lands.
