Mission Statement
The mission of the Maine Island Trail Association is to advance a model of thoughtful use and volunteer stewardship of Maine’s wild islands, creating an inspiring recreational water trail that is cared for by the people who use it.
About This Cause
The Maine Island Trail is a water trail spanning over 250 islands and coastal sites along the 375 miles of the coast of Maine. One third of trail sites are public, and two thirds are owned by private organizations and individuals who trust us to care for their lands and teach our members to Leave No Trace. The Maine Island Trail Association is a membership organization dedicated to the protection and enjoyment of the wild islands of coastal Maine. Founded with the powerfully simple idea that the care of the islands could be left to the users of these treasured and fragile places, MITA's ability to turn island users into island stewards is why islands visited by members tend to be in better shape than those left completely alone. We believe that Maine’s thousands of coastal islands are a national treasure and have built a community of educated island lovers and volunteer caretakers who agree. Our members include paddlers, sailors, motorboaters, and land-lubbers alike. They enjoy access to many private island properties. And they form a powerful force of people actively committed to the care and protection of the wild islands of Maine.
