South Portland

There's no need to pack when traveling to the coastal Maine city of South Portland, because you'll find everything you need within their 12.93 square miles. Outfit yourself with the latest fashions from the Maine Mall or one of the many retail outlets in South Portland's commercial area. Be sure to pick up a new pitching wedge to aid your game at one of their public golf courses.

Pack a picnic for trips to the sheltered Willard Beach and nearby Bug Light Park. Located at the historic sight of a WWII Liberty shipyard, the park welcomes visitors for tours at the Cushing's Point House Museum and Portland Breakwater Light (affectionately called "Bug Light").

The area also boasts a large marina, Portland Players and Lyric Music Theater, and numerous restaurants. At breakwater's end, the Spring Point Ledge Light warns ships away from the jagged outcropping ushering them safely into Portland Harbor.
