SHIPWRECKS AND BURIED TREASURE
Our coastline is haunted by many maritime stories and myths and Liscomb Island is the site of several. On this remote outpost we encounter cryptic engravings hinting at buried treasure and an abandonned money pit where treasure hunters sought Capt Kidd’s booty. A deserted light station, with its classic tower, overlooks the entrance to the bay and the remnants of an earlier settlement (with its graveyard overgrown by the forest). On nearby Tobacco Island colonies of Blue Herons, Eider Ducks, Cormorants and Gulls find refuge. We will also paddle out to a fading shipwreck, tossed up on shore years ago and gradually sucumbing to the rigours of Atlantic winter storms We will spend the nights at Liscomb Lodge Resort.
