Roque Bluffs State Park, Coastal recreation area in Roque Bluffs, United States.
The 274-acre state park features a half-mile crescent beach along Englishman Bay and the 60-acre freshwater Simpson Pond near the Atlantic Ocean.
The Maine Department of Agriculture, Conservation and Forestry established Roque Bluffs State Park in 1969 to preserve natural landscapes for public recreation.
Local families maintain traditions of annual visits to the park, combining beach activities with hiking through the extensive trail network throughout the seasons.
The park contains three main marked trails: Houghton's Hill Trail, Mihill Trail, and Pond Cove Trail, connected by smaller paths for varied hiking experiences.
Geological formations within the park display glacial striations that document the movement of ice sheets across Maine's coastal region during previous ice ages.
