Owls Head Lighthouse - Owls Head - Things To Do Reviews

Owls Head State Park and Owls Head Lighthouse are a nice place to walk around and explore. The park has a large parking area and a shady picnic area to stop and eat overlooking Penobscott Bay. Walking up to the light house youll get a beautiful view of the bay, some small surrounding islands and Rockland Harbor. The lighthouse is off limits as is the keepers house but you still walk around just stay on the trail thier are nesting area's in the surrounding grass. In the parking area the are paths that lead down to the shoreline. If it is lowtide I recomend going down thier and checking out the rocks they have some you can crawl around inside and go through I call them the "Bat Caves" cause im a huge batman fan lol! some of the areas leading down to the beach can be pretty steep so watch out I dont recomend wearing flip flops the rocks can get slippery and it is not a sandy beach. It is nice place to go and spend an afternoon and have a picnic and just walk around if you have the time. Thier are some beautiful homes down thier and a lobstering wharf. If your into photography make sure you bring your camera its worth the trip out thier!
