Hope you get a chance to visit the Maine Lighthouse Museum in Rockland. The museum is home to the largest collection of lighthouse, life-saving and U.S. Coast Guard artifacts in the nation!!
Was so convient, rather than running around looking for what to do ideas plenty of information in this bkdg. Didn't visit actual museum, but sure it would get 4 stars also.
Thank you! Hope you will return and visit the museum when you do! The museum is home to the largest collection of lighthouse, life-saving and U.S. Coast Guard artifacts in the nation.

Your trip back in time in understanding what a lightkeeper lives through starts at the view of the rough coastline the keeper lives on.
Very well done. Beautiful setting with viewing deck. Close to downtown and harbor. Learned a lot about lighthouses and got lucky with a guided tour done by a very knowledgeable native.
