Bass Harbor Head Light, in Acadia National Park, Maine


Nestled on the east side of Mt. Desert Island and surrounded by Acadia National Park, Bar Harbor features some of the most spectacular scenery on the Eastern Seaboard. The rock-bound coast, soaring granite cliffs, majestic mountains and blue waters have attracted the Rockefellers, Astors, and Vanderbilts for over 200 years, and continue to enchant visitors today.

The One Thing You Don't Want to Miss:

Explore beautiful Acadia National Park. See Cadillac Mountain and the natural rock formations of Thunder Hole. Journey over hand-cut stone bridges to arrive at Jordan Pond House, where you can take in the beautiful scenery of Penobscot Mountain and Bubbles Hill while enjoying popovers and tea.


Other Fun Things to Do:

» Enjoy an elegant lunch at the Asticou Inn overlooking Northeast Harbor.
» Stroll through the Asticou Gardens or visit the quaint shops and boutiques of Main Street.
» You'll also see Somes Sound, the only fjord on the East Coast.
» Discover the variety of local crafts to be found in the many charming boutiques of Bar Harbor.


Sporting Adventures:

Take the road less traveled. Explore Acadia National Park's many trails on foot or on a mountain bike. Or discover miles of protected coastline and the many offshore islands on a sea-kayaking adventure.


Get a Taste of Local Flavor:

Enjoy a true local favorite - a lobster bake with all the trimmings. Corn, potatoes and blueberry pie often accompany this delicious, casual meal.
