Set on the easternmost point of land in the continental United States four miles off Maine State Route 189, Quoddy Head State Park is a state park and recreational area in Lubec that features five miles of hiking trails, extensive forests and woodlands, a diverse habitat for rare plants, and the striking, red-and-white striped lighthouse tower of West Quoddy Head Light.

The lighthouse warned mariners of Quoddy's dangerous cliffs, ledges, and Sail Rock in the early 1800s and although now closed, visitors can explore the lighthouse grounds and visitors center, which is managed by the West Quoddy Head Light Keepers Association. Quoddy Head State Park offers beautiful landscapes, breathtaking views, scenic picnic sites, and excellent hiking and whale watching opportunities.
