A holiday beacon of light
This classic New England scene is Cape Neddick Light, one of the most iconic of Maine's 65 lighthouses, all lit up for the holiday season. Built on more than 2 acres of granite island, the Nub has been protecting sailors since 1879. It's a tradition for locals to visit when it's dressed up for the holidays. And if you miss the winter display, you can come back in July, when the lighthouse is relit for summer visitors.
