  3. Owls Head Lighthouse

    In Owls Head is the photogenic sight of Owls Head Lighthouse atop a promontory overlooking the dramatic coastline. Although the 19th-century lighthouse and keeper’s cottage are off limits, you can visit the surrounding grounds, which have short walking paths, a pebble-strewn beach and picnic tables.
