Mid-Coast Maine is known for its beautiful lighthouses.
Since Maine has always been a state dependant on
shipping and the sea, lighthouses in Mid-coast Maine are
not only a beautiful attraction for visitors and

There are several lighthouses in the Mid-Coast Maine
Area including the Squirrel Point Lighthouse, Doubling
Point, Doubling Point Range Lights, Halfway Rock Light
Station, Perkins Island Light, Pond Island Light, and
the Seguin Island Light Station.
Other Maine Lighthouses include the Halfway Rock Light
Station in Casco Bay and the Seguin Island Light
Station. The Halfway Rock Light Station is named after
its location on Halfway Rock, between Cape Elizabeth and Sebasco Maine. Built of concrete and 76 feet in height,
the lighthouse tower and former boathouse are all that
remain today. They are currently maintained by the
American Lighthouse Foundation and in need of repair.
The Seguin Island Light Station, maintained by Friends
