Grindle Point Lighthouse

Grindle Point Light was established in 1851 on the offshore island of Islesboro. The light overlooks - and guides mariners into - Gilkey Harbor. The station features a square brick tower. A Sailors' Memorial Museum - open daily in July and August - is located in the keeper's house. The station sits at the town ferry landing. Ferries from the Maine State Ferry System travel to the island from mainland town of Lincolnville.
