Seal Harbor Photo Gallery
We invite you to explore the Seal Harbor Photo Gallery, which showcases the diverse beauty of this area along the rocky coast of Mount Desert Island, Maine. Seal Harbor, a village within the municipality of Mount Desert, is renowned for its numerous opulent estates. The harbor frequently hosts a picturesque array of lobster boats and yachts, complemented by a charming public beach.
Points of View
This collection of nine photos from Seal Harbor showcases a wide variety of scenes. It starts with a few images of Main Street, transitions to waterfront views, and highlights Long Pond, one of my favorite spots. This set even includes a couple of photos taken from a boat, looking back at Seal Harbor, and features several of the so-called summer cottages
belonging to the wealthy on the island. If you are traveling south from Bar Harbor on Route 3, you'll pass through Seal Harbor. As the road goes by the Main Street storefronts and then a small park, Route 3 takes a sharp right turn. Instead of taking that turn, if you continue straight and veer right along the shore, you'll eventually reach a public pier on the right. This spot offers a different perspective of the harbor and provides opportunities for closer shots of some of the yachts. However, be cautious and drive slowly, as the road is narrow.
