Long popular with visitors, the lighthouses of the Maine Beaches region can all be seen from shore, but we invite you to find ways to get closer and observe them by boat. Long after you return home, these majestic landmarks will inspire treasured memories of a uniquely Maine experience. WHALEBACK LIGHTHOUSE Kittery Point GOAT ISLAND LIGHTHOUSE Cape Porpoise The Whaleback Lighthouse—built of gray granite blocks—is situated on the northeast side of the Portsmouth Harbor. When first constructed between 1829 and 1831, the lighthouse could not withstand the extreme weather conditions and had to be rebuilt. In 1872, the new tower was assembled in a style similar to the Eddystone Light in England. One of the best views of the light is from Fort Foster in Kittery Point. GPS Coordinates: Latitude: 43.0586° Longitude: -70.6966° Perched on the southern end of Goat Island, this lighthouse was originally built of split stone and stood 20 feet high. It was replaced in 1859 by the slightly larger painted brick tower that is visible today. Goat Island was the last of the Maine lighthouses to have a U.S. Coast Guard keeper. The light has been restored to its 1950’s state by the Kennebunkport Conservation Trust and visitors can view the lighthouse from Cape Porpoise. GPS Coordinates: Latitude: 43.3583° Longitude: -70.4249° BOON ISLAND LIGHTHOUSE York Beach Set on an island just 14-feet above sea level and 6.5 miles east of York Harbor, Boon Island Light, at 133-feet-tall, is New England’s tallest lighthouse. Its place in history is due, in part, to its perilous location, and to a gruesome shipwreckfilled past. This includes the infamous 1710 wreck of the Nottingham Galley, whose crew resorted to the grim practice of cannibalism for survival. The unmanned light first erected in 1811, and later re-built of locally quarried ashlar granite, is now privately held. GPS Coordinates: Latitude: 43.1214° Longitude: -70.4764° CAPE NEDDICK “NUBBLE LIGHT” York Cape Neddick is one of the most photographed lighthouses in the world. It stands high above the waves so that while it is only 41 feet tall, it’s red light flashes 88 feet above the ocean. It is constructed of cast iron plates lined inside with brick. Built in 1879, it is referred to as “Nubble Light” because of its location on the “Nubble,” a rocky island off the eastern end of Cape Neddick. Owned and maintained by the town of York, it can be viewed from Sohier Park or via a lighthouse cruise; there is no public access to the island. GPS Coordinates: Latitude: 43.165° Longitude: -70.5916° Goat Island Lighthouse, Photo: Robert Dennis WOOD ISLAND LIGHTHOUSE Biddeford Pool Authorized by President Thomas Jefferson in 1808, Wood Island Lighthouse is named for the uninhabited island it stands on at the mouth of the Saco River. Originally built of rubblestone, it has since been replaced with granite blocks. The lighthouse with its white light beaming 71 feet above the ocean, can be seen from the East Point Audubon Sanctuary walking trail in Biddeford Pool. Summer tours by boat are also offered by the Friends of Wood Island Lighthouse leaving from Vine’s Landing. GPS Coordinates: Latitude: 43.4569° Longitude: -70.3291° MAINE OPEN LIGHTHOUSE DAY In 2016, Maine Open Lighthouse Day will be celebrated on Saturday, September 10. Each year this special day offers visitors to the Maine coast the opportunity to explore and learn more about our many shoreline guardians. During 2016 Open Lighthouse Day, these Maine Beaches area lighthouses will be available for a visit: Goat Island Lighthouse and Wood Island Lighthouse.

No matter what you are in the market for, we’re certain you will find your own special brand of happiness when you go shopping anywhere in the Maine Beaches.
