When you purchase the eco-friendly package, we’ll provide pick-up and drop off service from the Rockland Ferry/bus terminal, or from the Monhegan boat line. Additionally, we have complimentary bikes for guests to use while staying at the East Wind, and can suggest the ‘local favorite’ farmstands, boutiques, galleries, and lighthouse destinations around the St. George Peninsula.
There are numerous opportunities to immerse yourself in local culture and support local businesses while staying at the East Wind. You can start your day eating breakfast from our porch while watching the Lobstermen work at the dock next door - the Tenants Harbor Fisherman’s coop. Take an afternoon ride or stroll to Port Clyde, and enjoy a coffee overlooking the harbor, take a boat tour of the islands, head to the Marshall Point Lighthouse, or visit the Wyeth gallery to experience local art at its finest.
For those looking to relax back at the hotel, instead of a bike ride and packed lunch, enjoy steamed lobster, corn on the cob, potato salad and a slice of Blueberry pie (made with Maine’s famous wild blueberries).
Our Eco-tourism package gives travelers an opportunity to make a positive impact on the world, the mid-coast Maine community all while providing a unique and rewarding travel experience.
