Join MCHT on Upcoming Field Trips
Again this summer Maine Coast Heritage Trust is offering an exciting variety of field trips, spanning the entire coast. Please join us to explore wild islands, observe native birds and other wildlife, and hike scenic coastal trails.
Grab Your Binoculars
MCHT's coastal and island preserves provide exceptional locations to observe returning and resident bird species, while marveling at the incredible ocean vistas around you. During the peak of spring migration, join MCHT on one of these trips to truly experience the many colors, sounds, and habits of birds in Maine:
- Frenchboro (May 20)
- Great Cranberry Island (May 21)
- Hamilton Cove, Lubec (May 21)
- Western Head, Cutler (May 28)
- Bog Brook Cove, Trescott (May 29)
Reserve Your Paddle
There is no more intimate way to appreciate the beauty and ruggedness of the Maine Coast than from the snug confines of an ocean kayak. Accompany MCHT Stewards and local outfitters as we navigate the surf, glide to secluded coves, and explore
Maine's fascinating human history:
- Cobscook Bay, Edmunds (July 9)*
- Treat Island (July 15 & August 1)*
- Back Bay, Milbridge (August 13)*
- Machias Bay, Machiasport (August 28)*
Bring Your Camera
For decades, artists have flocked to Maine in search of 
breathtaking ocean scenery and abundant wildlife. The following excursions provide opportunity for both, as well as informative guides ready to share the conservation history of some of MCHT's most spectacular preserves:
- Marshall Island (10 Trips from June to September)*
- Malaga Island (July 9)*
- Merchant Row, Stonington (July 11)*
- Boot Head, Lubec (August 7)
We hope to see you, your family, and friends on these and other MCHT trips this summer. And of course you always have an open invitation to explore MCHT preserves on your own and witness firsthand the many special places you have worked with us to protect.
We look forward to seeing you on the coast!
