Geocache Description:

Getting to Peaks Island will be the most challenging part - after that, it's a typical roadside cache. Take your own vessel, or the ferry from Portland. The island is a 4 mile loop on the paved road, an easy walk. It's often cooler and windier here. Wear bugspray and check for ticks. Please be respectful of private property and wildlife, ride safely and help keep the island clean. Peaks is an amazing adventure all it's own - enjoy!


One of many Peaks Island Pirate Caches, this one brings you to TEIA - an island family organization for over 100 years.  The building was originally a dance hall where sailors from sea and ladies from the mainland would meet for food, flirtation and fun - and things haven't changed that much...  Once this was one of Peaks Island's three ferry docks, you can see the remains of the old Trefethen Landing.  Enjoy a walk on the beach or picnic on the lawn but beware the pirates in training out in Diamond Pass! (Ask the managers here, if you dare to meet the Winter Pirate, himself...) Seasonal - BYO permanent marker or pen & be very discreet! Good Luck!  ~ Winter Pirate
