The Quoddy Head State Park is found on the easternmost peninsula in the continental United States and encompasses 541 acres of land.
Visitors to the state park have five miles of trails to explore and can also venture to the West Quoddy Head Light, the most eastern lighthouse in Maine.
From the tower, visitors can see the Quoddy Channel which serves as a border between the United States and Canada and the towering cliffs on Grand Manan Island.
Some of the best wildlife viewing in Maine happens at Quoddy Head State Park, and many people can see whales, ducks, sandpipers, plovers, and other roosting birds, as well as bald eagles and other migrating birds.
A one-mile walk leads to Heath, a coastal plateau bog with plants that don’t often grow south of Canada.
The Carrying Place Cove Bog is another bog found at the park and is a National Natural Landmark
