We booked a week here in August. It's a great location to explore northernmost Maine. Each day we were out in perfect, bug less weather to see another beautiful scene. Don't miss the Schoodic Penninsula, home to the less traveled Acadia National Park (east section). Also see Rocque Bluffs State Park--beautiful beach. Lubec is great with a lovely lighthouse state park. Across the short bridge in Canada is FDR's Campobello Island retreat yes, you'll need your passport and dog vaccine certificates to cross the border (both ways). Closer to Jonesport is the lovely, little used Sandy Beach. It is just 3.7 miles from the front porch. Drive East out of Jonesport when you pass the sign for Jolene's Fabrics on the left look for the well marked pedestrian crosswalk (2 signs, lights) just before the crosswalk turn left into the municipal parking lot and work station. Leave the car, walk over the crosswalk and down the short access path to the Long Beach. It is public space below the high water tide line. Stay off the private home properties beyond. The surf is calm, the water is clear and the beach is almost a mile long. That's a lot of sand for Maine! Our dogs loved it! There is one portapotty at the municipal lot but no other facilities and no personnel stationed on the beach. The ocean here is about 60 f in August so wading is about all one can do comfortably. Back to the Camp. It sits on a bluff above the port. The views are authentic Maine working seaport. The fisherman leave before the sunrise but we never heard go them so it's not disruptive to good sleep. Access to the beach is by two steps. The camp has one new one 20 yards from the deck and one right out front but it is very rickety be careful. It's 20+ steps down to the tidal beach which is not appealing for lounging or swimming. Jonesport is a working village port. Lots of flotsam, jetsom ends up in the water and on the beach. We went down there once but there was no reason to go again. The real view is from the sunny deck. Our hosts were very friendly and live onsite. They are not at all obtrusive but they are helpful, generous and fun to talk to as they are retired globe trotting scientists. We were happy at the camp. Jonesport is not Bar Harbor it is not touristy and the locals work hard to carve out a modest living is a difficult, dangerous profession. Everyone is very friendly in northern Maine; very friendly indeed.
