Boothbay Harbor Footbridge

Midcoast Maine


A pedestrian footbridge links two sides of Boothbay Harbor, and is a popular spot for a simple, quiet stroll and a selfie in front of all the boats. In the middle of the bridge is a tender's house, still privately owned and occupied; the floor of the home includes a hatch through which supplies can be raised or lowered into or out of the house.
