Reversing Falls Hancock Maine
Reversing Falls Hancock Maine
As we were driving along near Hancock Maine, we spotted a sign saying Reversing Falls with an
arrow pointing down a small paved road. Because we had no schedule, we turned
down the road to see what was there. We found a small park maintained by
Frenchman Bay Conservancy
overlooking a
spectacular reversing falls. We stayed around a bit taking pictures and enjoying
the beauty of the spot. (See for
directions and explaination of reversing falls)
There was a sign advising us to return at low tide for a more spectacular view of the falls. We planned the rest of the day to be sure that we got back in time--late afternoon. We were glad we did. The water flow due to the tide was quite impressive.
We spent quite a bit of time admiring the falls and talking with people who drove up to see the show. Several people told us that we missed an even bigger reversing falls when we were in the Lubec Maine region. And we missed the world's biggest Whirlpool. Oh well another reason for a return trip.
