Starting at either 9 am or 3 pm, you'll pedal along the picturesque South Portland Greenbelt Pathway, passing by two iconic lighthouses. It’s a fantastic way to enjoy the coast and learn about local maritime history.

Afterward, you'll continue to Spring Point Ledge Light, constructed in 1897, situated at the end of a historic granite breakwater. You’re even allowed to walk on the breakwater to get closer to the lighthouse and explore the nearby Fort Preble, which has played a role in every major war since 1812.
