Acadia National Park Bar Harbor Table of Contents

Acadia National Park, Bar Harbor and surrounding villages offer much for visitors. Our goal is to provide a simple and inspirational path of discovery, a place to revisit past experiences, and a way to share with friends, family, and associates. It is a great way to explore the total region and become familiar with what is here, the history, and the varied landscape from seashore to the summit of Cadillac Mountain.

The following represents a partial list of pages. Take your time and enjoy the journey.

Acadia Groupings

Acadia National Park encompasses a significant portion of Mount Desert Island, several surrounding out islands, and an extensive area on the mainland at Schoodic Peninsula. In addition to the park's numerous attractions, there are many interesting places to explore in the nearby towns and villages. To gain a better understanding of the layout, it is advisable to consult the two main maps—one detailing Mount Desert Island and the other covering the Schoodic Peninsula and surrounding areas. These maps will provide you with a general sense of the park's geography and how different locations relate to one another. When selecting accommodations, consider your areas of interest, driving distances, and budget. Additionally, remember that the Free Island Explorer Shuttle Bus service is available for most areas, offering a convenient transportation option (in-season).

Thank You

If you've made it all the way to the end of this "Contents" page, you've done exceptionally well. Researching and photographing such a large section of coastal Maine has been a daunting task. Writing the content, working with the images, and creating this ever-evolving visitor's guide have presented even more challenges. At one point, the AcadiaMagic.com website comprised between 1,800 and 2,000 pages. There have been multiple redesigns to adapt to technological advancements and the varying sizes of viewing devices. This project has been a significant undertaking, completed one page at a time. I confess, however, that it has been both a mission and a labor of love.

This "Table of Contents" lists only the main pages, but there are many additional sub-photo pages with brief descriptions. All of these will eventually be updated, so please be patient, as some may retain the older design for a while until the task is finished. Thank you for visiting!
