Campobello Island Attractions

On the island of Campobello further offshore to the south lies the spacious country seat of the Roosevelt family. Until 1921 the U.S. President often stayed here, but his visits became less frequent in the 1930s.

At one time Campobello was named "Port-aux-Coquilles" by the French colonists because of the abundance of mussels to be found here.
One of the landmark features on Campobello Island is the East Quoddy Lighthouse, also known as the Head Harbour Lighthouse.
Campbello Island - Roosevelt Campobello International Park
The centerpiece of Roosevelt Campobello International Park is a 34 room "cottage" that was occupied by the soon to be president and his family from 1905 to 1921. Items on display include furnishings, toys, photographs and other Roosevelt family memorabilia.

The park also features beautiful green spaces with gardens and walking trails leading to the rocky coastline.
