 Exploration of Acadia National Park
"SEAWALL" between Southwest Harbor and Bass
Harbor on the South West side of Mount Desert Island |
|
Located on
the South West side of Mount Desert Island. This side
of Mount Desert Island is frequently referred to as the
"Quite Side" only because it does not have a cruise
ship port where ships come in and drop off passengers
that crowd the streets at times and tour buses drop
off passengers that visit the shops and restaurants.
Nonetheless, it is a beautiful area and you should visit it
and see the beach there, walk the Ship Harbor Trail and
visit Bass Harbor Lighthouse like most people do. You can
get here several ways. The quickest way is to head
toward Southwest Harbor from Route 102 (stay straight).
If you want to to take the longer route, you can take Route
102 and stay right toward Pretty Marsh and drive along the
Blue Hill Bay passing Seal Cove, Tremont and Bass Harbor.
We took the Southwest Harbor route. Make sure you pick up a
map for Mount Desert Island Acadia from the visitor center
we mentioned earlier. The map will make it easy for
you to get around. Take a look around at the sights
color coded for Seawall's area.
