Search hotels in Lubec

Lubec is one of the most beautiful places in Maine. We have been here many times before and it never disappoints us. We stayed near Quoddy Head State Park and hiked in the park which was very satisfying.

Lubec is situated next to some of the best seascape vistas Maine has to offer. It’s an unsung Maine gem. You can also spend a day exploring trails and historical monuments near Campobello across the Canadian Border or jump over to bike the exposed sandbar at low tide to Ministers Island, or check out historic Native petroglyphs near Machias. Lubec is a perfect place to situate yourself to do all of these and more. Bikers, Birders, Hikers, Boaters, Writers, Historians, Artists and anyone that wants to be immersed in serene seaside beauty would love this area.

We were there just Monday through Tuesday. There is an excellent brew pub on Main Street that is only open Thursday through Sunday so we missed that, which was sad. Fisherman's Warf was the only restaurant that was open during our stay, but the food was excellent and the service was also excellent. The views of the water and boats was amazing! I love that Lubec is not crowded and the ocean is accessible with walks at Quoddy Head Light House pleasant and include stairs for beach access. Lots of nature to be soaked up and folks who are helpful, but content to let one be. We have been to Lubec often and many times gone on to Campobello. Our grandson, 15, came with us and also had a great time. He found a fabulous little rock shop.

Very small town, but definitely fits the description of "quaint". Nice little restaurant there on the water with a great view. Bridge across to Canada. Multiple area lighthouses for lighthouse buffs.

This is a spectacular spot to see gorgeous ocean and take wonderful walks by picturesque lighthouse and wander through little towns straight out of a Norman Rockwell painting! I highly recommend it for a lovers nature lovers, and for people who travel with kids and pets. Don’t forget to bring your passport if you want to go to Canada, because it’s right next door! If you love a small town atmosphere, then you’ll enjoy this location.

Driving this far north ended up being a good idea as Lubec is a small quaint village, reminding us of why we went to Maine in the first place! I would add that there aren't too many dining choices, but what they have seemed adequate.
