Swallowtail Overlook

This newly built seaside home is a favorite for travelers seeking unspoiled natural beauty, with its panoramic views you can enjoy birdwatching, of over 338 species including the puffin.  Come see what Tim Peters became enthralled with enough to compile a visual journey of pictures of this island and the fisheries in a book titled The Rhythm of the Tides (see more at www.timpeters.com). You can enjoy an early morning cup of coffee on your private deck as the fog rolls out and the sun breaks through to sparkle across the waves.  Be sure to bring your camera, your friends won't believe you! 
As you arrive by ferry, look to the right as you come around the lighthouse and you will see, high atop the cliffs, the house where you will be staying!!
