Popham Beach is 15 miles south on Route 209 from Bath. You must visit Fort Popham built during the Civil War and Fort Baldwin built during World War 1. These are located in the village. If you get the chance, charter a boat and go out to Seguin Island which houses the highest elevated and second oldest lighthouse in Maine. There are caretakers on the island to explain the history and take you up into the lighthouse. Other points of interest include L.L. Bean in Freeport and the Maine Maritime Museum in Bath. Enjoy the lobster.
