Acadia National Park and Mount Desert Island: Places to Explore
Northeast Harbor
The summer community for some of the nation's wealthiest families, Northeast Harbor has one of the best harbors on the coast, which fills with yachts and powerboats during peak season. It's a great place to sign up for a cruise around Somes Sound or to the Cranberry Islands. Other than that, this quiet village has a handful of restaurants, boutiques, and art galleries.
