Top Bar Harbor On the Water

Cruise through the scenic waters of Frenchman Bay during a leisurely sailing trip. Admire views of Acadia National Park in Maine during this sightseeing boat tour. Keep an eye out for wildlife including eagles, seals, and porpoises during the sail. Check out views of the Porcupine Islands from the spacious decks on board a Windjammer. Picnics are welcome on board.

Explore the Maine coast on a small-group paddling tour around Western Bay (Pretty Marsh), Blue Hill Bay, and Somes Sound. Learn much more about the region's environment than you would alone, look out for wildlife including seals, and bring your own picnic to enjoy lunch on a coastal beach.

Take a deep dive into Bar Harbor, Acadia National Park, and Mt. Desert Island on this half-day bus tour. Since your transportation is provided, you can focus on the scenery and taking in the insightful narrative instead of driving and directions. Make three stops within the town of Bar Harbor and the National Park to witness firsthand the views and wildlife that make this island so special. Stops include Cadillac Mountain, Sieur de Monts Spring, and Thunder Hole.

Where the granite peaks of Mount Desert Island meet the restless Atlantic surf, your perfect day in Acadia awaits. This is not a rushed drive, but a fully customizable, private pilgrimage through the park, guided by a year-round local who knows every hidden sanctuary and changing seasonal rhythm. Together, we will trace the winding, dramatic curves of the 27-mile Park Loop Road, with the absolute freedom to stop, step out, and explore whenever a breathtaking ocean cliff or quiet path speaks to your soul. We will ascend to the majestic summit of Cadillac Mountain to take in panoramic coastal vistas, walk Sand Beach, experience Thunder Hole, Otter Cliffs, and so much more! Then paddle out for an unforgettable kayaking session on the glassy, pristine waters of Jordan Pond. Let a local show you the true heart of Acadia—at your own pace, on your own terms. Kayaking is for two at a time. We can bring you to other fresh water locations on or off the island!
