| • | Campobello Island is a Canadian island located in the Bay of Fundy near the entrances to Passamaquoddy Bay and Cobscook Bay. The island is part of Charlotte County, New Brunswick but is actually physically connected by a bridge with Lubec, Maine - the eastern-most tip of the continental United States.
Measuring 14 kilometres (9 miles) long and about 5 km (3 miles) wide, it has an area of approximately 70 km² (30 miles²). In addition to the Lubec bridge, the island is accessible in the summer months by an automobile ferry from nearby Deer Island and from there via another ferry to mainland New Brunswick. The island's permanent population in 2001 was 1,195. The majority of residents are employed in the fishing/aquaculture or tourism industries.
The island was originally settled by the Passamaquoddy Nation who called it Ebaghuit.
