Rockland is well known for its lobster, including the Lobster Festival every August.  You can find fresh lobster in most restaurants around town, from gourmet fine dining restaurants to wear-a-bib lobster shacks.

Rockland is equally known for its lighthouses – 14 of which are located in Know Country – many accessible by car and foot.  Built back in the 1800’s, each lighthouse is unique in its design, with special tales of shipwrecks, rescues, legends, and ghosts.

Lobsters, Lighthouses & Luxury packages, offered by four of Rockland’s luxurious Historic Inns, include:

• Two nights at a historic inn, with an option to add on a third night at a specially priced rate
• Two tickets to the Maine Lighthouse Museum, including a guided tour
• Two tickets on Captain Jack’s Lobster Adventure (an eco-tour and boat ride when you learn about lobstering)
• $50 voucher for a lobster dinner (for two) at participating restaurants
• Maine Lighthouse book and map
• Self-guided Knox County lighthouse tour
• Exclusive guide tours of the Rockland Breakwater Light
• Chocolate treat

Packages are offered during the month of June, and start at $365/couple, representing up to a 30% savings.  You may also want to add on air service from Boston to Rockland via Cape Air (starting around $120).

You can book the Lobsters, Lighthouses & Luxury package with the Historic Inns of Rockland, through the inn website, or by calling (toll free) 877-ROC-INNS.
