Maine is a state known for its beautiful lighthouses along the rocky coast of the Atlantic, and Cape Neddick Nubble Lighthouse is a great example of why.

This gorgeous and historic lighthouse was built in 1879, with an attached red-roofed house and outbuildings that make for a gorgeous and scenic view. Constructed of cast iron and brick, and with a tower height of 41 feet, Cape Neddick Nubble Lighthouse is actually still in use today, shedding light on the foggy seas to help guide ships home.

Unfortunately, the lighthouse and its grounds are not currently open to the public, but a trip to nearby Sohier Park provides an excellent view of this stunning structure.
