Review & FAQ:

Connected to the city of Falmouth by a causeway, Mackworth Island is a great place to come and spend a day surrounded by nature. Outdoor enthusiasts of all ages (including four-legged friends) can spend a few hours exploring beautiful beaches and admiring some of the best views of Casco Bay you are likely to find anywhere along the coast. The entire island is a bird sanctuary and is a hotspot for viewing a wide variety of both marine and shore birds. You can take a very pleasant 1.5-mile coastal walk around the perimeter of Mackworth Island in around an hour and enjoy a picnic on one of the pristine beaches.
