Take a walk out to sea without getting your feet wet! Rockland Harbour Breakwater Light is a historic lighthouse complex at the end of the Rockland Breakwater in the harbour of Rockland, Maine. Replacing a light station at Jameson Point, the light was established in 1902, about two years after the completion of the breakwater. Keep an eye out - a walk out the Rockland Breakwater often offers sightings of shorebirds and harbour seals.
