Deer Isle is downeast Maine at its best: an island, reachable by automobile over a high narrow suspension bridge, a cluster of quiet communities where fishing is the mainstay of the economy. The spruce-crowned pink granite ledges, quiet woods and open fields, vistas of islands and sparkling water lure visitors from nearby and far away.
For more than a century artists have come to Deer Isle, attracted by the scenery and the modest way of life. Internationally-known Haystack Mountain School of Crafts has brought many craftspeople to the area, a number of whom have chosen to live here permanently. Writers, photographers and musicians add to the creative mix and often share their talents at public events. Twenty Art and craft galleries display work produced by some of the most accomplished artists in the country. More than a dozen antique, gift and book shops invite leisurely browsing. The island has a wide variety of lodging accommodations, including eleven B&Bs, motels and campgrounds with full hookups.
Lobster boats still outnumber visiting yachts and sailboats. Schooners from the Penobscot Bay windjammer fleet anchored in Stonington Harbor evoke scenes from the past.
