Local Restaurants
Helen's Restaurant
111 Main StThis small restaurant is a hidden gem. The food is always delicious! It’s first come first serve on the patio, but worth it if it’s a nice night out. The town of Lubec is tiny, but they usually have a summer concert series, plus it’s a good stop on your way back from Campobello Island.

What to pack
Bring a variety of clothes
The weather varies quite a bit in Roque Bluffs. Even though it’s just a few minutes away, the temperature is typically a good 7-10 degrees cooler than in Machias during the summer. Some days the fog may roll in, and others might be bright and sunny. It’s best to bring a variety of things to wear. Evenings are usually cool, especially after the sun goes down.
