A must see for all ages. Set in beautiful Ft. Williams, you just imagine all the ships that have relied on the this historic and vital lamp. Bring a kite and your bathing suit if you dare. Pack a picnic, bring charcoal for the grill or buy your lunch from the juried food vendors. Be prepared for port a potties.

One of the really beautiful lighthouses on the Atlantic coast. Minutes from downtown Portland, surrounded by a lovely park with plenty of parking near the light. Maintained paths enhance the appeal of the park in general and afford multiple views of the light. The rocky promontory on which it sits and the action (waves and sea traffic) add to the... More

We have been in the winter when it was closed and in the summer. the waves on the rocks are amazing to watch, especially in the winter. We also took a water boat tour of the area and seeing the lighthouse ahead in the distance was a beautiful site.

A very nice park with some history. The lighthouse is really beautiful and also the fact that is an old battery is very interesting and cool to explore.

This is a beautiful lighthouse. After our tour of Portland Maine, it was so nice to see this lighthouse in the distance. And when we approach it, it was just so beautiful with the ocean waves crashing against the rocks. Its definitely a must see.

The light house is beautiful. They have a small but nice gift shop. An awesome view of the Atlantic Ocean. Beautiful well kept park attached to it. Great for walks and picnicing. Fun for the whole family. A must visit when in Maine.

This is what lighthouses should look like. Edward Hopper agreed. Lots of wedding couples have their photos taken in front of the lighthouse. It's impossible not to photograph it; it's so handsome, historical and likeable.

Very nice free attraction if you are in the Portland area. We did not visit the museum for which there is a modest entry fee ($2 adult, $1 child). However, its a very nice place to visit and the lighthouse set against the crashing surf makes for a very good photo op. There are views of another lighthouse further out... More

The excursion we took while on our New England/Canadian cruise gave us about 45 minutes to explore this beautiful and historic lighthouse. It is an absolute gorgeous lighthouse, and the view/scenery is breath-taking. Be sure to visit if ever in Portland.
