What people say

Goat Island Light was built in 1833 to guide boats into Cape Porpoise Harbor and was one of the last lighthouses in the region to be automated, Visit Maine notes. It is a Kennebunkport Conservation Trust property with resident keepers, and New England Today points out that it can be seen and photographed from across the Cape Porpoise pier.
