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 light house, 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.
