Portland, Maine

Ray Dauphinais

Flying into Boston on Sunday at noon. Driving to Portland and have a scheduled meeting at 4pm. Would love to do some coastal, light house, waterfront shots during the 2.5 day stay.

Any suggestions on locations? I intend to do a sunrise light house set. Which one of the 4-5 local area light houses provides the best scene?

Anything special along the way to Portland and from Boston?

Thank you.

Portland Head Light is the most famous and would probably be your first choice but the other two in town are worth a stop.

Portland Head Light is in Fort Williams Park on Cape Elizabeth. This area is just south of town. Best lighthouse image you'll ever get.




There are two more lighthouses in Portland Harbor (10 minutes away): Spring Point Light and "Bug" Light. Both worth the trip. Head back towards town from Cape Elizabeth and hug the shore. They're not hard to find. Pick up a local tourist map at your hotel.

Spring Point:


"Bug" light:


Enjoy your trip.
