Things To Do
Beehive Trail
This is one of Acadia's most well known hike's where you get to climb up the edge of the mountain using ladder rungs built into the trail. This trail is a 1.5 mile loop where you will get views of the rugged Maine coast and Sand Beach. This trail leaves from the Sand Beach parking lot.
Ocean Path Trailhead
This easy 2.2 mile one way trail starts at Sand Beach. This trail follows the road and will bring you to sights like Thunder Hole and Otter Cliffs.
Jordan Pond House Restaurant
Stop in at Jordan Pond House for lunch and try their famous popovers and take some pictures by Jordan Pond.
Cadillac Mountain
Drive or hike up Cadillac Mountain. This is the first place to see the sunrise on the east coast. A vehicle reservation is required to drive up the mountain. Be sure to make them using the link above.
Bass Harbor Head Light Station
Drive out to see the lighthouse in Bass Harbor. After you visit the lighthouse hike the wonderland trail. It is 1.3 miles and at low tide is a perfect place to explore tide pools.
Geddy's
This is the place to go if you want the best fresh Maine lobster in Bar Harbor.
Jordan Pond Ice Cream & Fudge
This is my favorite ice cream place in Bar Harbor.
