The Nubble

By Linda Tancs

Affectionately referred to by locals as “the Nubble,” Nubble Lighthouse (formally known as Cape Neddick Light Station) is touted as one of the most photographed lighthouses in the world. That’s likely due to its iconic and picturesque setting on a small, rocky island (hence, the name) just off the coast of York, Maine. For shutterbugs, that means excellent vantage points for stunning images, especially at sunrise and sunset. Visit in the spring or fall when crowds are thinner and the lighting is soft and diffused. Sohier Park offers unobstructed views.
