That was good advice about the lighthouses in the
Camden area. I have done several trips. One of the sponsers was the Elm Bed and Breakfast in Camden. They have a web site at Elms Bed and Breakfast. com. We saw seven or eight lighthouses on each trip.
Boothbay Harbor has Capt. Fish's Tours. These went up the Sheepscot River and back down the Kennebec. We saw all the little lighthouses on the river and more in the bay.
I just returned from Maine and a trip around the Portland area.
Went to Pemiquid Point and was lucky enough to
get there at a time when we could climb the tower.
The view was fantastic and I got some great pictures from up there.
We had lunch at the comination Gift Shop and Restaurant located there. That was interesting and they had several real looking statues of Indians. We had to have our pictures taken with them.
Next we went on to Portland.
We saw Portland Headlight which is magnificent!
You can see Ram Island Ledge Light from there.
Next, we went to Two Lights State Park and saw the
two lights located there. They are both individually owned but we got close enough to get
great pictures. {I think we were on a private street and probably should not have been there)
We went to see Spring Point Ledge Light, which has
an old Fort beside it, part of which is out in the water.
In the same vicinity is Portland Breakwater Light.
Got great shots of this beautiful little light.
Some even had boats in the background.
Great shots of the Portland skyline from here,too.
Don't miss Lighthouse Depot in Wells. This is a treat!
Areally good book is Maine Lighthouses by Courtney Thompson. It gives directions for all
the Maine lighthouses.
I hope this is helpful.
