The campsite at Bar Harbor has been split into 2 distinct sections; Waterfront where you have a fantastic view of the Atlantic shoreline, and Woodland; which is a short distance from the shoreline but offers shaded accommodation amidst the trees. Encompassed by 3,500 feet of coast along the entrance to Acadia National Park, you’ll be able to enjoy nature’s beauty from the private, rocky beach. A regular shuttle service means you can enjoy all the amenities of the campground and the local area. You can even go whale watching and fi shing, with boats and kayaks available to rent.

This parc is also ideally situated for day trips to Nova Scotia, as it is only a couple of hours by ferry.
