marshall point lighthouse museum印象

My wife and I toured 5 lighthouse locations on Penobscot Bay and loved them all. But Marshall Point was by far our favorite. Beautiful location. Bring folding chairs and sit on the bluff overlooking the water and just... take it in.

The lighthouse from the segment of Forrest Gump's epic run across the country is in Port Clyde, Maine and can be visited. A museum is on site, and visitors can walk along the rocky shoreline, finding seashells and sea glass.

Wife and I have been visiting Light House's for years and finally made it to this one! This light house was made Famos by Tom Hanks in Forest Gump as he ran up to this one in the coast to coast run segment of the movie! The museum is full of Maine maritime history, the volunteer staff is very knowledge in answering questions. Don't miss the monument for fishermen that lost their lives at sea! Pack a lunch and enjoy as the grounds have a few picnic table with awesome views of the ocean! Bruno & Sharon

Took our wine, cheese, crackers and good friends to the lighthouse next to this great museum and enjoyed a super Maine sunset while watching a supermoon rising. Doesn't get any better then that. Nice view of Port Clyde harbor and close to cute restaurants. Can't wait to go back!

One of the most popular and photogenic lighthouses in Maine attracting loads of visitors on a sunny day. Lovely place to have a picnic with breathtaking views from either side.

This is a pretty area at the end of Maine 131 near the town of Port Clyde. The lighthouse grounds are small, but the scenery more than makes up for it. Behind the oil house is a memorial to the commercial fishermen lost at sea. This is a secluded place to sit and watch the tides. There are a few picnic tables where you can sit and enjoy a lunch. The lighthouse itself is small. You can get a great picture of it from the steps of the keeper's house. We didn't go into the museum. We wandered around the rocks at the base of the lighthouse to get pictures of Port Clyde and the lighthouse itself. It is a beautiful place to spend some time.

You can't enter this lighthouse, but the ramp leading to it provides a scenic backdrop. Bring a picnic and sit at the tables and admire the view. The museum is small but informative and the volunteer staffer was super friendly. Keep your expectations in check and you'll have a pleasant but likely brief visit.

As I was showing my family the numerous pictures of the numerous lighthouses I saw on my trip, I could add to this one "This was the lighthouse Forrest Gump ran to after Jenny left". That always elicited a ooo or an aaah. Other than that one of the many lighthouse I saw on my fast track through Maine.

I visited in a beautiful sunny fall afternoon. The lighthouse has a great panoramic view of the water. Great photo opportunities and rocks to explore. The museum was closed when I visited but the building is nice and the area well landscaped. Great for a quick afternoon picnic at the table near the anchor. I plan a return trip.

What a great view and wonderful little museum! We stayed about an hour and took in the amazing view. We had sandwiches to eat on the picnic tables, bit it was a bit too breezy to enjoy a picnic. The museum is small, but informative, and was staffed by volunteers who love to tell about "their" lighthouse! No charge, but volunteer donation if you want.
