We took our "Save the Date" photos here! It is about a 30 minute drive from Rockland, Maine, but it worth the drive as it is so beautiful at any time of day. Fun fact: This Lighthouse was featured in the film, Forest Gump! It is the scene when Forrest stops running but decides to turn around and start running again. Exact scene below! https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=QH-FBLV4a0Q
This is our favorite place to grab a snack/lunch. We think they have the best hot dogs ever. When you arrive, there may be a long line because it is so popular, but the line move fast. Heads up: they are cash only! Lindsey's Favorite: Two hotdogs with just onions :) Andy's Favorite: Two hot dogs with everything (onions, mustard, relish)

Live web cam: https://www.rocklandharborlights.org/web-cam/ Rockland Harbor Breakwater Light is a historic lighthouse complex at the end of the Rockland Breakwater in the harbor of Rockland, Maine. Replacing a light station at Jameson Point, the light was established in 1902, about two years after completion of the breakwater. GPS Coordinates: 44° 06′ 15″N 69° 04′ 39″W (View Map) From US Route 1 in Rockland… Turn onto Waldo Avenue (while traveling north toward Camden on RT 1, this will be a right turn and while traveling south on RT 1, this will be left turn.) Go .5 mile on Waldo Ave, turning right onto the Samoset Road. Samoset Road ends in the small parking area for the Breakwater. The Breakwater, to the left of the parking area, leads about .8 miles to the lighthouse.
Enjoy the Maine Coast’s beauty from the deck of Morning In Maine. Relax and watch the seabirds and harbor seals as the ketch glides through the waters of Penobscot Bay… or lend a hand in sailing the boat! On most Maine sailing trips we see Rockland Breakwater Lighthouse, Owls Head Lighthouse, and historic schooners. Monday morning is the best time for a day sail in Rockland, Maine, where we watch the schooners sail out of the harbor for their week-long cruises.
Home Kitchen Café opened its doors on Feb 24, 2009. It was winter in midcoast Maine and the country was in the midst of a recession. There were no tourists (a mainstay of our area), and no place to get breakfast and lunch served ALL day. After 2 years of planning, testing and tasting, we decided it was the time to start cooking for the public. The cafe is located in a former 1940’s gas station (one of our bathrooms still has the original sink) and was renovated in 2013 to expand the kitchen and include a second floor and deck.
