Visitors are welcome to have a lunch on the banks where picnic tables encourage a family meal and shade trees offer relief during the warmer summer days. The banks to the north sweep up quickly to give you that wide, panoramic look-down view so well captured in the photo above. The cove itself is largely a traditional Maine working harbor. There are a few moored pleasure boats but they are clearly the minority to a larger fleet of working class commercial lobster and fishing boats The cove is oblong in shape and offers protection from east-west winds, but is wide open to the south west. It is deep enough for sailboats to maneuver about. (As with ANYWHERE in Maine waters, consult your chart, use a GPS if you have one, and know where you are at all times. Surprises are not favored!) |
