Combined with a recent push to get people spending time outdoors, Maine’s visitors in the summer are increasing at an exponential rate. Just in 2021, Maine saw more than 3.2 million visors to our state 42 parks. NY Times has put together a list of spots where visitors can be part of the solution to these issues of over-tourism and climate change. On their list of “52 Places for a Changed World”, they put a new park in Maine: Cobscook Shores in Lubec. Cobscook Shores is a group of 15 waterfront parks with access to undeveloped beaches, coves, bluffs, spread across three peninsulas. The parks offer free public access for walking, picnicking, hiking, biking, camping, and paddling.
