Maine Light Houses - East Quoddy Head Lighthouse Near Lubec Maine
 
OK, so East Quoddy Head Light House is not in Maine, heck it's not even in the United
States. This wonderful light house is on Campobello Island in New Brunswick, Canada. But
doesn't this light house look like it belongs in Maine? And the people of Lubec, Maine and
Campobello Island are very close and friendly even though they live in different countries.
The island and Lubec are linked by the Franklin Delano Roosevelt (FDR) Memorial Bridge.
And it is very easy to get from one side to the other, although security restrictions have been
added because of world events over the past couple of years. But this light house is
spectacular. This digital photo was taken from a clearing at the end of a path just left of the
parking area. Since the coasts of Maine and Campobello Island look very similar, you would
not question if this scene is in Maine unless you are familiar with the region. I love the
setting of this light house. While sitting at the foot of the lighthouse, I have seen schools of
porpoises and whales and watched eagles fly overhead. A trip to Campobello Island should
be part of any northern Maine coastal vacation.
