Just a hop, skip, and jump across the harbor from downtown Portland, Maine is lovely South Portland! Situated along the water with stunning views of Portland Harbor, “SoPo” has beautiful scenery and sights to see!

Spend a day visiting lighthouses and parks including Portland Breakwater Light (also known as “Bug Light”), and Spring Point Ledge Lighthouse, take a coastal stroll along the Spring Point Shoreway, or opt for a beach day at Willard Beach!

Sprinkled with cool shops and restaurants, South Portland is home-y and residential, with an unexpected “cool factor”. Pop by local boutiques sprinkled throughout the city, or head to Maine’s largest Mall—The Maine Mall—which offers endless shopping fun!
