American Island Towns That Still Depend On Passenger Ferries For Everyday Life In 2026

When The Ferry Is Basically Your Highway For most Americans, missing the bus is annoying. In these communities, missing the ferry can mean missing your connection to groceries, appointments, work, school, supplies, or the mainland altogether. From tiny Maine fishing villages to remote Alaskan settlements, these 25 American island communities still rely heavily on boats in 2026. Could you handle planning everyday life around the ferry schedule? Factinate Ltd. #25. Peaks Island, Maine Island: Peaks Island | Ferry connection: Portland Peaks Island sits only a few miles from downtown Portland, yet residents can't simply drive across a bridge to get there. Casco Bay Lines provides year-round passenger and vehicle service, making the ferry a normal part of commuting and everyday errands. It carries far more than tourists, including residents, vehicles, freight, mail, and students. The trip may be short, but that stretch of Casco Bay creates a surprisingly different way of life. #24. Friday Harbor, Washington Island: San Juan Island | Ferry connection: Anacortes and neighboring islands Friday Harbor looks like a postcard-perfect waterfront vacation town, but its ferries perform a much less glamorous job: connecting island life to the rest of Washington. Washington State Ferries serves San Juan Island

Olive, Again by Elizabeth Strout

Elizabeth Strout is a fine writer, and novels such as The Burgess Boys and My Name Is Lucy Barton are very good. Still, Olive Kitteridge, her 2009 Pulitzer Prize-winning collection of interrelated stories, has an immediacy and fierceness that one finds in only the very greatest books. Sequels nearly always disappoint, and it cannot be said that Olive, Again has quite the range and power of its predecessor. Nevertheless, the book does an excellent job of revivifying the ill-tempered, truth-telling Olive and her neighbors in and around fictional Crosby, Maine.

Greater Portland’s 9 Best Under-The-Radar Thrift Shops For Incredible Bargains

Somewhere in southern Maine, you can buy secondhand clothes by the pound. Not by the shirt or the hanger, but by weight, straight out of rolling bins. That detail alone sent me down a rabbit hole. My list grew fast: a church shop with old-school prices, a community center closet open only a few mornings a week, and a resale spot that invites you to race to the rack.
