Bug Light Park

Nestled at the edge of Portland Harbor, Bug Light Park offers sweeping views of Casco Bay, the Portland skyline, and the historic Portland Breakwater Lighthouse â€” affectionately known as â€œBug Lightâ€ for its small size. Built in 1875, this elegant lighthouse features Corinthian-style columns and stands as a symbol of Portlandâ€™s maritime heritage. The park is also home to shipbuilding memorials honoring the Liberty Ships constructed here during World War II, making it both a scenic and historic stop.

Duration: 30 minutes

Portland Head Light

Standing proudly on the rocky cliffs of Fort Williams Park, Portland Head Light is the oldest lighthouse in Maine, commissioned by George Washington in 1791. This iconic beacon overlooks the dramatic Atlantic coastline, where waves crash against rugged granite ledges. Visitors can stroll the park grounds, explore historic military ruins, and capture postcard-perfect photos of one of the most photographed lighthouses in the United States.

Duration: 45 minutes

Eartha, the World's Largest Revolving and Rotating Globe

Located at the former DeLorme mapping headquarters in Yarmouth, Eartha is the worldâ€™s largest rotating and revolving globe. Standing over 40 feet tall, this massive three-dimensional scale model of Earth slowly spins on its axis, replicating the planetâ€™s real rotation. Guests can view it from a glass atrium or outdoor observation area, making it both a fascinating engineering marvel and a unique photo opportunity.

Duration: 45 minutes

L.L. Bean Factory Store

Open 24 hours a day, 365 days a year, the L.L. Bean Flagship Store in Freeport is a true Maine icon. Since 1917, it has welcomed visitors from around the world to explore its vast selection of outdoor gear, apparel, and home goods. The campus features multiple specialty stores, seasonal events, and the famous giant Bean Boot â€” a must-see photo stop. Itâ€™s not just shopping; itâ€™s a slice of New England culture and tradition.

Duration: 1 hour

Androscoggin Swinging Bridge

Built in 1892 by the Roebling Company â€” the same engineers behind the Brooklyn Bridge â€” the Androscoggin Swinging Bridge is a historic pedestrian suspension bridge that gently sways as you cross. Spanning the Androscoggin River, it offers charming views of the water and surrounding forests. Listed on the National Register of Historic Places, itâ€™s both a peaceful walk and a unique piece of Maineâ€™s industrial history.

Duration: 30 minutes

Maine Maritime Museum

Set on the banks of the Kennebec River, the Maine Maritime Museum celebrates the stateâ€™s rich seafaring heritage. The museum features interactive exhibits, historic shipyard buildings, and a full-size sculpture of the schooner Wyoming â€” the largest wooden sailing vessel ever built. Guests can explore Maineâ€™s shipbuilding traditions, lighthouse history, and maritime culture, all in a scenic waterfront setting.

Duration: 1 hour
