Toll ferries operate all day in the summer months between the Deer Island Point Campground and Eastport, Maine and Campobello, New Brunswick.
Free ferries run on the half-hour from Butler's Point, Deer Island to L'Etete on the New Brunswick mainland.
Numerous fishing villages dot the Deer Island coast - home to the herring, lobster and salmon fishery that are the mainstays of the island economy.
