Tidal Shores

Relax and take it all in. Thanks to an ever-changing tide the view is constantly changing. From one of two decks, you'll see so much: a working harbor, big exposed rocks, small islands (bring your rain boots to trudge through the clam flats), and plenty of wildlife. At high tide launch your canoe and paddle around the harbor. Or just sit, read a book, and take it all in. A short ride (5-10 minutes) brings you to beautiful hiking trails, delicious food, locally owned boutiques, and so much more.

A 10 minute drive brings you to shops in Southwest Harbor, a hike up Beech Hill Mountain, watching the surf from Seawall or catching the sunset at Bass Harbor Lighthouse
