Fort Williams Park, Coastal park in Cape Elizabeth, United States
Fort Williams Park extends across 90 acres along Casco Bay, featuring walking paths, recreational areas, and the Portland Head Light lighthouse at its eastern edge.
The park grounds contain military structures from 1872, including the deteriorating Goddard Mansion and former battery installations that protected Portland Harbor.
The Children's Garden within the park functions as an educational space where students learn about native plants and participate in environmental programs.
Visitors can access the park grounds daily from sunrise to sunset, with parking areas near the lighthouse and multiple entrance points along Shore Road.
The park maintains specific zones for cliff walks, offering direct views of passing ships, fishing boats, and seasonal water activities in Casco Bay.
