Cape Elizabeth in Northern Maine is a beautiful coastal town best known for its craggy shores, bays, and miles of sandy beaches. It's also home to several historic lighthouses. It's a great summer vacation destination, and the population swells in the summertime.
Things to Do in Cape Elizabeth Maine
Some of the best things to do when visiting Cape Elizabeth include exploring the area’s picturesque lighthouses. Begin by seeing the lighthouse at Two Lights State Park, which was originally constructed in 1928. It offers stunning views of the open ocean.

While in Cape Elizabeth, you can also spend an afternoon canoeing and bird-watching at the secluded Great Pond. If it's hiking you're after, head to Robinson Woods, which is an 82-acre preserve home to ancient trees.
