Lighthouse

The Spring Point Ledge Light Trust was formed by the Portland Harbor Museum in early 1998 to acquire ownership of the Spring Point Ledge Lighthouse. The lighthouse was one of 28 in the state of Maine which were being turned over to non-profit organizations and governmental agencies under the Maine Lights Program. The transfer of ownership took place in a public ceremony in Rockland, ME on June 20, 1998.

I did not pay the $5 to tour the lighthouse itself, but the walk on the jetty was a memorable one, and provided some great photo opportunities. The lighthouse was strikingly short, but obviously did its job well. Worth a visit!

Ok place to view the harbor. Very clean bathrooms at the "Art Studio". The girl working there will even help guide you around the premises. Very inviting.
