The magic of Bar Harbor…romance, adventure, the rock-bound coast and soaring granite cliffs. From the stonewall-lined and tree-covered road leading you into our village, to the sweeping vistas from atop Cadillac Mountain, there is a special mystique to Bar Harbor. Nestled on the east side of Mt. Desert Island, surrounded by Acadia National Park, the area has welcomed visitors for over a hundred years.
Oceanarium & Lobster Hatchery, Seal Cove Auto Museum, Abbe Museum, and The Bar Harbor Whale Watch Company are just a few of the area attractions. Don't forget Lobster Boat Adventures with Captain John's boat the LULU which has been rated the number one activity (out of more than 30) in Bar Harbor for several years now.

| Deer Isle is an enchanting place. Although reachable by bridge, the Island still retains the flavor of New England life in the 1950's: rural, neighborly, safe. A cluster of small communities with 2400 residents comprise the year-round population. Lobstering is the mainstay of the economy although the diversity of the Island’s businesses surprises everyone. Granite is still quarried here. Internationally renowned Haystack Mountain School of Crafts has brought many artists and artisans to the Island, many of whom have chosen to live here. Their galleries, studios and workshops dot the island. The Stonington Opera House, celebrating its 10th year of rebirth, has achieved national recognition as a year round performing arts center. |
