Traveling from Wiscasset to Acadia National Park, here are some great stops along your trip. Pemaquid Point Lighthouse The most photographed lighthouse in Maine with beautiful, dramatic rocks going down to the ocean. One of the few lighthouses you can go inside of on a normal day. At Damariscotta take route 130. The lighthouse has nice picnic tables for a leisurely lunch or head up route 32 and stop by Shaw’s in New Harbor (indoors) or the lobster shacks at Round Pond (outside picnic tables)
