While there are numerous islands located just off of Maine’s coastline, a favorite among locals and visitors alike is Damariscove Island, a beautiful, uninhabited, and historic island. While the scenic island is a great place to visit to get a bit of “peace and quiet,” visitors will also find opportunities for birdwatching and hiking. This two miles long and quarter-mile wide island happens to also be designated on the United States National Register of Historic Places and boasts more than two hundred acres in total of coastal tundra vegetation that a wide variety of wildlife call home.
