Explore the scenic beauty of South Portland on our Lighthouse Bicycle Tour. Starting at 11:00 am, you'll pedal along the Greenbelt Pathway, passing by three historic lighthouses that tell stories of maritime history and local charm.
First, visit Portland Breakwater Light, affectionately called "Bug Light," built in 1875 to guide ships safely into Portland Harbor. Next, you'll stop at Spring Point Ledge Light, located near the historic Fort Preble, a site rich with naval history. The tour then takes you past Willard Beach, a perfect spot for a quick break and some photos. Your final destination is the iconic Portland Head Light at Fort Williams Park in Cape Elizabeth, one of the most photographed lighthouses in New England.
