Too bad web info on this campground is so hard to find- it is one of the best places I have ever camped at. Large private sites, almost all with views of the pristeen Cobscook Bay. It is a kayakers dream. Seemingly endless protected estuarian water to paddle with NO development. In about 15 hours of kayaking I saw a total of 3 other kayakers anjd maybe 4 boats (all in the far distance). The seals follow your boat and the eagles ride the thermals above your head. Lubec is freindly and undiscovered and original downeast. Hiking is spectacular nearby as is fishing and wildlife spotting. We saw whales from shore and from boat, caught cod, clamed and visited nearby Campabello Island (also way cool).

SouthBay Campgrounds is on topr of the rest and absolutely the best. Good old-fashioned hopitality with tent sites that make you wonder if anyone else is around. Cabins in the moonlight. The Rv's are stationed at the entrance, before the inground pool, and shower area. The sites are large and comfortable. Overlooking the bay from the bluff offers a spectacular view of the tides during daytime hours. Privacy without the black flies so prevalent throughout upper maine. Hearing the dew drops and not the talk of neighbors during the evening hours, the footsteps of moose who wander the area, and just the tranquility of the night makes this the utmost destination for those who want to experience camping the way it used to be. Restaurants and other amenities are just minutes away. This will be my 4th trip out to Lubec in as many years. Southbay Campgrounds always finds a place in my passing from Bar Harbour with the fancy hotels and Acaidia Park to the B&B's thoughout the Downeast Area. Watching the sun rise from the bluff is an exhilirating experience that gives me the pleasure of knowing what it means to be alive in one of the last great areas of pure and simple relaxation.
