Owls Head State Park in Maine is a charming natural retreat managed alongside the United States Coast Guard. Nestled on a granite promontory 100 feet above Penobscot Bay, the park boasts the historic Owls Head Light from 1852. While the lighthouse grounds remain Coast Guard property, visitors can bask in the picturesque views, wander to the rocky beach offering vistas of Rockland, or explore the picnic grove.
With picnic tables dotting the park, visitors can enjoy a leisurely meal while immersing themselves in the serene ambiance. The Land and Water Conservation Fund has played a pivotal role in enhancing this state park, ensuring a harmonious blend of preservation and recreation. Whether you seek a tranquil beach experience, a glimpse of a historic lighthouse, or a wildlife-watching escapade, Owls Head State Park offers a delightful haven for nature enthusiasts.
