Local Activities

Welcome to Lubec, Maine! Lighthouses, coastal trails and wildlife—discover the best of Lubec and nearby.

As you plan your visit, get ready to experience some truly unique sights. You'll be treated to beautiful sunsets that paint the sky with vibrant colors. For an unforgettable dawn experience, make sure to visit the West Quoddy Head Lighthouse, where you can witness the very first rays of sun in the entire country.

Be prepared for the atmosphere, as fog is a frequent visitor here, adding a mystical charm to our coastline. For an exciting adventure, you can also embark on a whale watching tour and observe these magnificent creatures in their natural habitat. And don't forget to bring your passports! This will allow you to take a short trip across the border to explore the lovely Campobello Island, just a stone's throw away. We look forward to seeing you!
