Really neat lighthouse with about a 10 to 15 minute walk to get to the lighthouse. Worth a stop. Probably plan on about 30 minutes to an hour or so. Watch little kids there are some trails that lead off to cliffs.

Its worth a drive if you enjoy a very quiet and peaceful day! In my opinion some of the best scenery I have ever found from on top right where the lighthouse is.

Great place to visit the owl's head light house. It's a small walk/hike but the views are stunning. Free parking available and enough space there and not very crowded even on a weekend. It gets very windy once you climb the stairs to view the lighthouse so get your jackets for sure.

The park is small, but very beautiful, with breathtaking views. It has a small Owl's Head lighthouse, and a rocky beach with picnic area.

Owls Head Lighthouse was a peaceful and scenic stop. It’s a small but beautiful lighthouse perched on a rocky cliff with great views of the coast. The short walk up was easy, and we enjoyed the quiet atmosphere. There’s a small museum nearby with interesting facts about the lighthouse’s history and how it operated. Even though we’re not from Maine, we found it relaxing and educational, a perfect spot to take in the natural beauty and learn something new. The nearby beach was peaceful with gorgeous views all around. We will certainly be back!
