This digital photo of West Quoddy Head Light House was taken in the park sitting area near the
light house. You have probably seen this fine Maine light house in photographs at camera
shops and perhaps in books or on television. It's red and white candy-striped paint job is very
unique, making it one of the most recognizable light houses in Maine, and perhaps the entire
United States. There is a picnic table in this area where you can sit and watch the strong
currents of the cold, deep waters of the Bay of Fundy or watch eagles circle overhead. The fresh
air and fragrant wildflowers dazzle you with their beauty and scent. And the bold, granite cliffs on
which this light house is located demonstrate why this light house is needed. Sea travel along
this portion of the coast of Maine would not be safe without the warnings provided by this grand
old light house.
