Great Cranberry Island

Great Cranberry Island

Great Cranberry Island is an island located in Maine. It is one of the five islands of the Town of Cranberry Isles, Maine.

Great Cranberry Island is a favorite vacation spot for many. Access to the island is provided by ferry from either Northeast Harbor or Southwest Harbor, both located on Mount Desert Island. Many islanders also have their own boats and dock at Spurling Cove.

Notable locations on the island are the History Museum, the General Store, the school and library, and Crow Island, which is accessible only at low tide.

The Ladies' Aid Fair, held each year since 1900 in August, is a highlight of the annual calendar.
