The fall season is approaching and the Town of Kittery’s seasonal staff are returning to high school and college.  Beginning Wednesday, August 23, 2023, the park will begin observing its off-season schedule.  

During the off-season, the entrance gate to Fort Foster will remain open and the main parking area will be accessible for vehicles.  During this time there will be no attendants at the park. Portable bathrooms will be available.

Fort Foster is a local treasure, as well as a complex and vital natural resource providing habitat to native and endangered animals, plants and trees. Whether visiting during the regular season, or off-season, visitors are asked to carry out all litter, trash and pet waste in an effort to protect this vital natural resource for our generation and generations to come.
