Campobello is a large Canadian island that protects the entrances to Cobscook and Passamaquoddy Bay, joined to the mainland by the International Bridge over Lubec Narrows. It is a lovely island, 7.5 miles long and 2.5 miles wide, with hard-working fishing communities and the famous summer home of President Franklin D. Roosevelt on Friars Bay. His cottage has now become part of the Roosevelt-Campobello Island International Park (Canadian site) and can be reached by docking in the man-made harbor of Welshpool. Campobello’s southern and eastern shores front on Grand Manan Channel. Head Harbour Passage runs along its northern and western shores, with depths of 200 and 300 feet. The island has two excellent natural harbors, Head Harbour at the northern end and Harbour de Lute on the western side, as well as several small man-made harbors that can provide refuge in a pinch. The island may be best known for the Roosevelt Campobello International Park just across the bridge. The late U.S. President Franklin Delano Roosevelt had a "cottage" on the island where he and his family vacationed. The cottage is still today as it was in the 1930's and you can tour it free. There is also a visitors center and 2,800 acres of park associated with the complex.
