Estes Head | Additional Description:
With 64 feet of water at mean low tide, Estes Head in Eastport is the deepest natural port on the East Coast of the United States. Completed in 1998, the new facility enhances the port's capacity by adding two long, deep berths to complement the Breakwater Pier downtown. Pulp and paper have been the primary cargo at the new pier; however, a variety of bulk goods may be shipped to markets worldwide in the future.
