Fodor's Expert Review Bug Light Park

South Portland Lighthouse

The relatively small size of Bug Light (it’s officially known to the U.S. coastguard as South Portland Breakwater Light) is what gave it its nickname, and then the name of the 9-acre park surrounding it followed. Bug Light was originally built in 1855 and rebuilt with plates and Corinthian columns in 1875, and stands today as both a landmark and a terrific place to catch views of Casco Bay and Munjoy Hill.
