We really do live amongst some pretty great people!

10/30/2026

Well Eastport, we are “coming in for a landing” on 2026! And as is somewhat of a “tradition”, we are bookending another season with one of our oldest friends in the Pearl Seas Cruises Pearl Mist!

Our first visit for 2026 back in May, she will call the as the season finale this Sunday, arriving at 7:30 in the AM and staying the day until 4:30PM. So let’s be up early and be ready to again showcase the best of who we are.

And we know you will, why? Because Eastport, yet again in 2026 you were amazing! 2026 continued to surpass expectations, grow a community and most importantly share us with so many visitors that arrived as strangers but left as knowing Eastport as friends.

In an ever changing world, with challenges in every opportunity, Eastport has always shown the resilience to find its future from the very same ocean that was always its past. As your Port Authority, we are honored to continue to play a part in all of it.

Together we keep the maritime and fishing community well provided for in its assets, tourism supported in its visitor-ship, and Eastport positive in community activity and continued hope for an even better Eastport. An Eastport where working families and retirees alike can both live and prosper.

And it is also together that you have made, not the Port of Eastport, but the City of Eastport,

“The Most Welcoming Port City in the World”

The Port of Miami is widely known as the cruise capital of the world. Boasting over 10 million passengers a year it truly is an economic force for the state of Florida and the nation.

Fun fact? The Port Director for PortMiami, that “little port” on Miami’s waterfront, is Eastport’s own, our good friend and former Eastport Port Authority Director, Jonathan Daniels.

That’s right, the person leading one of the largest ports in the country got his start at the Port of Eastport Maine!

Leaving for advancement in 1998, he was absolutely instrumental in the build of the Estes Facility in late 90s. He has since built a tremendous career and is known nationwide as a leader in his field. And that guy? He has had many a breakfast at the Waco Diner and knows that Raye's is the best place in the world to get mustard!

With all his children all born in Machias and Calais hospitals back in the day, Jonathan has never forgotten the port that gave him his start in the industry. And more importantly he forever has a soft spot for the community he called home!

Another tremendous fact is that although he left back in 1998, the port has only known 2 port directors since, a testament to the longevity we have enjoyed in the Ports success.

So, the next time you ever wonder how far any of us can go from our little corner of the world, or how much respect people from all over the country have for that very same corner, just keep in mind when you look at the Port of Miami, remember the gentlemen leading that entire organization, and just know he knows exactly how good a Rosie’s hot dog really is!

The Port of Eastport is proud to be representing Eastport at the Cruise Line International Association Cruise Forward Conference this week.

The Port of Eastport continues to have a well known name within the industry as a unique, up and coming destination. This is completely reflective of the industry’s focus on smaller more genuine stops as they look to diversify their itinerary offerings to a more conscientious and interested traveler.

This coupled with the industry’s continued focus on sustainability and community engagement makes for a solid partnership into the future.

Seen here with the President of CLIA Charles “Bud” Darr and other members of the CLIA team, the community of Eastport may be small in its numbers but it “punches well above its weight” as they say in its notoriety within the industry.

All of that of course as always is directly attributable to the community of Eastport, - community that helps us be known as “The Most Welcoming Port City in the World”

As promised we are now posting the security video that has had labeling added of the primary persons involved.

Please note that the labeling is an addition, it is not perfect, and is meant to be for reviewing reference only. Although no other alterations of the video of any kind were made, please refer to the raw footage for the record.

For Public Release:

This release is for the purposes of video release and is not intended to be the full statement on this, or any other, situation on behalf of the Port Authority.

The following is the raw footage of the security camera covering the Port Authority back parking lots following the adjournment of our monthly meeting on Monday October 19th 2026. It captures, in their entirety, specific actions involving two members of the public that had been in attendance. This video system has no audio.

The video is being released in conjunction an to an incident involving these individuals that was reported by the Maine Monitor. This video was officially requested by the Maine Monitor in relation to such, after we advised them that it existed.

With the request for release, we immediately provided the footage to our legal representatives to see it reviewed in appropriate fashion. The media outlet was advised that it would be released in the coming days after to allow for sufficient legal review.

The Eastport Port Authority has since expedited the release to today to help bring immediate transparency to the situation. It is being released directly to the public rather than just a single media outlet for matters of complete transparency.

We will also be providing a labeled version of this video that better identifies the involved parties, but wanted to release the raw footage first.

We encourage the people of the community, and the press, to review this video in its entirety, along with the since released third party audio and also the public statements made on the incident. Taken together, we trust that the public can make its own judgement on the level of accuracy in the reporting to date.

The Eastport Port Authority will be calling on all parties involved, including the press, to ensure that any and all reporting on this matter be made, and remain, accurate and factual for the benefit of the record.

We couldn’t begin to say it any better than the Rayes. Nancy took a cornerstone of our community and turned it into an icon. One that will last generations well beyond her own. That is a true measure of impact for anyone, legacy.

Rest easy Nancy, the Eastport community salutes a life so well lived.

Some of you may have heard of the "infamous", but yet to be named, "Namma", who has kept our security and crew VERY WELL fed this season. Her goodies often find themselves in the hands of a few of our guests. This young lady had never had a Maine Whoopie Pie, especially a "Namma" Whoopie Pie!

The interview was not as perfect as that Whoopie Pie, but after a couple of takes....but we got it.

Perhaps "The Tastiest Port City in the World" too?
