Swan Island Wildlife Management Area Details
A large island at the head of Merrymeeting Bay, Swan Island most likely won't be filled with graceful white fowl, but instead an abundance of birds like bald eagles. Covering 1,775 acres and accessible only by ferry or self paddle, visitors are asked to help in the preservation efforts of this beautiful place by staying on the 8.3 miles of trails, respecting their campsites, and leaving the six historic buildings throughout the property in peace. Facilities: Restrooms, Campground, Ferry Service
