"BILLY'S IS COOL, SO IS THE LIGHTHOUSE DEPOT" Wells by Rich62

This is the world's largest lighthouse gift shop, or so they claim, and I believe them! Its about a half hour south of Portland (Maine) on Route 1, or about 20 minutes north of the Kittery outlet malls.

Billy's Chowder House

Now why didn't I get a picture of Billy's? The best I can do is a picture of the coffee mug I brought home.

Anyway it's a cool place to eat, right out by the water.

postscript: We revisited the area in 2008 and I did get photos of Billys. See them in my tips below.
