Find the closest hotels to Burnt Coat Harbor (Hockamock Head) Lighthouse Notes from a friend: Kraig writes:Swans Island is blessed with one of the prettiest harbors and some of the friendliest people you will find anywhere. In the short drive to the lighthouse, it was soon apparent that waving at every passing car is an island custom. We quickly embraced the habit and a time or two even initiated the exchange of a pair of raised fingers from the steering wheel. See our List of Lighthouses in Maine |
