Documented folklore from the Club 49 map, told straight and sourced.
The outermost island in Casco Bay has been dug over for three hundred years by people convinced that Captain Kidd, or someone like him, buried plunder here before sailing on. Nothing has ever been proven found, but the digging is documented and so are the pits. The island itself is worth the boat: it is public land now, with a beach, the concrete World War Two observation towers built to watch for U-boats in the bay, and no facilities at all. Bring water and take everything back out.
Jewell Island, Casco Bay (Cumberland County, Maine). Source: Three centuries of documented treasure digging; nothing ever proven found. The Club 49 map pins this legend at its documented country, beside the real mines, active claims, land status and modeled honey holes of the same ground. Open the free map and go stand in the story.
