 About The Area: Cape Neddick, Maine
Cape
Neddick is just one of the four beautiful areas that make
up the Yorks of Maine. It is located near the mouth of the York
River where it meets with the Atlantic Ocean. Cape Neddick beach
is a great beach for kids with many sand bars that are superb for
beachcombing collecting shells, looking for sea creatures and exploring.
It's most famous building is the Nubble Lighthouse,
the southernmost of Maine's many lighthouses and was established
in 1879. The lighthouse was automated in 1987 and is not opened
to the public. The tower is 40 feet tall neighboring a 6 room Victorian
house that was home to the lighthouse keepers that used to reside
here.
 "Neddick" is believed to be an Algonkian word meaning
"solitary", referring to the nubble of land isolated from
the peninsula on which the Nubble Lighthouse resides.
The area features boating, deep sea fishing, a golf course, camping,
kayaking, shopping, antiques, restaurants to dine on fresh Maine
lobster, and beautiful scenic views.
