Getaway for one in Maine near beaches and lighthouses?

Looking for a cheap getaway for one at a quaint place in Maine near beaches to walk along, lighthouses overlooking the shore, a coffee shop down the road, and a cozy balcony to read on; nice locals and good atmosphere too. Suggestions welcome! Thanks

Portland, or Cape Neddick. I'm a light house fiend. A few years ago, a friend and I just hopped into the car and headed out to the cape. We started in Plymouth, and ended up in Portland. We spent a good deal of time checking out the Lighthouses Of Maine. Portland Head is gorgeous, and there is a nice walking pathway you can take around the area, it is a big tourist attraction and it's more like a state park. Cape Neddick (Nubble Light) is in York, Maine. It's unaccessable- (on an island) but a gorgeous view. The town is very nice too, very quaint. In town, everything is in walking distance, and it's only a short drive over to the light house. I'm sure you could walk, but because we were only there for a few hours, we drove over. Good luck, and have fun. There are many other beautiful places in Maine to visit. Enjoy!
