Acadia National Park Maine | Cadillac Mountain Sunrise | RV Living to Bar Harbor Maine
On another National Geographic quest of RV living, I RV to Bar Harbor, Maine and tour Acadia National Park in Maine an have one of the most profound experiences to see the Cadillac Mountain sunrise come up over the islands and water. It's the first sunrise to see in the United States on top of Cadillac Mountain. Just make sure you get there early because there are hundreds of people who travel up the mountain very early to see the sunrise. Places like this is why I sold my house to experience beauty like this around North America.

Bar Harbor on Mount Desert Island in Maine is a tender port - we sailed from Anthem of the Seas into the harbor in small local tender boats. A tour to Acadia Nature Park, covering the majority of the island. We drove from Bar Harbor to the south along the rugged rocky coast and through dense forests to the top of Cadillac Mountain, with a nice view over the island.
Back in Bar Harbor we got a cappuccino at a cafe. Walked through the town and along a path along the water.
In Bar Harbor is a great difference between the tide and at 1 pm was the Island Bar Island mainland with Mount Desert. We walked on a sandbank to the island

Acadia National Park, kayak tour
National Park Acadia | Acadia National Park | in the state of Maine, southwest of Bar Harbor
Acadia National Park is an American national park located in the state of Maine, southwest of Bar Harbor.
The park preserves about half of Mount Desert Island, many adjacent smaller islands, and part of the Schoodic Peninsula on the coast of Maine.
Acadia was initially designated Sieur de Monts National Monument by proclamation of President Woodrow Wilson in 1916.
Sieur de Monts was renamed and redesignated Lafayette National Park by Congress in 1919—the first national park in the United States east of the Mississippi River and the only one in the Northeastern United States.
The park was renamed Acadia National Park in 1929.
More than 3.5 million people visited the park in 2018.
Native Americans of the Algonquian nations have inhabited the area called Acadia for at least 12,000 years.
They traded furs for European goods when French, English, and Dutch ships began arriving in the early 17th century.
The Wabanaki Confederacy has held an annual Native American Festival in Bar Harbor since 1989.
Samuel de Champlain named the island Isle des Monts Deserts in 1604.
The island was granted to Antoine de la Mothe Cadillac by Louis XIV of France in 1688, then ceded to England in 1713.
Summer visitors, nicknamed rusticators, arrived in 1855, followed by wealthy families, nicknamed cottagers as their large houses were quaintly called cottages.
Charles Eliot is credited with the idea for the park.
George B. Dorr, the Father of Acadia National Park, along with Eliot's father Charles W. Eliot, supported the idea through donations of land, and advocacy at the state and federal levels.
John D. Rockefeller Jr. financed the construction of carriage roads from 1915 to 1940.
A wildfire in 1947 burned much of the park and destroyed 237 houses, including 67 of the millionaires’ cottages.
The park includes mountains, an ocean coastline, coniferous and deciduous woodlands, lakes, ponds, and wetlands encompassing a total of 49,075 acres as of 2017.
Key sites on Mount Desert Island include Cadillac Mountain—the tallest mountain on the eastern coastline and one of the first places in the United States where one can watch the sunrise—a rocky coast featuring Thunder Hole where waves crash loudly into a crevasse around high tides, a sandy swimming beach called Sand Beach, and numerous lakes and ponds.
Jordan Pond features the glacially rounded North and South Bubbles at its northern end, while Echo Lake has the only freshwater swimming beach in the park.
Somes Sound is a five-mile long fjard formed during a glacial period that reshaped the entire island to its present form, including the U-shaped valleys containing the many ponds and lakes.
The Bass Harbor Head Light is situated above a steep, rocky headland on the southwest coast—the only lighthouse on the island.
The park protects the habitats of 37 mammalian species including black bears, moose and white-tailed deer, seven reptilian species including milk snakes and snapping turtles, eleven amphibian species including wood frogs and spotted salamanders, 33 fish species including rainbow smelt and brook trout, and as many as 331 birds including various species of raptors, songbirds and waterfowl.
In 1991, peregrine falcons had a successful nesting in Acadia for the first time since 1956.
Falcon chicks are often banded to study migration, habitat use, and longevity.
Some trails may be closed in spring and early summer to avoid disturbance to falcon nesting areas.
Recreational activities from spring through autumn include car and bus touring along the park's paved loop road; hiking, bicycling, and horseback riding on carriage roads ; rock climbing; kayaking and canoeing on lakes and ponds; swimming at Sand Beach and Echo Lake; sea kayaking and guided boat tours on the ocean; and various ranger-led programs.
Winter activities include cross-country skiing, snowshoeing, snowmobiling, and ice fishing.
Two campgrounds are located on Mount Desert Island, another campground is on the Schoodic Peninsula, and five lean-to sites are on Isle au Haut.
The main visitor center is at Hulls Cove, northwest of Bar Harbor.
Native Americans have inhabited the area called Acadia for at least 12,000 years, including the coastal areas of Maine, Canada, and adjacent islands.
The Wabanaki Confederacy consists of five related Algonquian nations—the Maliseet, Mi'kmaq, Passamaquoddy, Abenaki and Penobscot.
Some of the nations call Mount Desert Island Pemetic , which has remained at the center of the Wabanaki traditional ancestral homeland and territory of traditional stewardship responsibility to the present day.
The etymology of the park's name begins with the Mi'kmaq term akadie which was rendered as l'Acadie by French explorers, and translated into English as Acadia
The Wabanaki traveled to the island in birch bark canoes to hunt, fish, gather berries, harvest clams and basket-making resources like sweetgrass, and to trade with other Wabanakis.
They camped near places like S

Il n'existe qu'un seul parc national sur la côte Est américaine et c'est celui-ci. Il est très fréquenté par les américains, mais peu connu de nous les québécois.
Nos voisins nous avaient déjà parlé de Bar Harbor, localité située à proximité du parc national. La curiosité aidant et désirant découvrir de nouveaux horizons, nous avons décidé de nous y rendre et y passer une fin de semaine.
Ce parc est situé sur l'île des Monts Déserts (Mount Desert Island). Il s'agit d'un secteur protégé et des frais d'entrée sont exigés.
En fait, le coût de la passe est de 25 $ US par voiture et elle est valide pour une période de 7 jours. On peut se la procurer directement au Centre des Visiteurs à l'entrée du parc ou directement sur le web à l'adresse suivante: .
On retrouve dans ce parc mer, plages, lacs et montagnes. C'est pourquoi une multitude d'activités y sont proposées: randonnées pédestres ou en vélo, kayak, paddle board, croisières, etc.
En ce qui nous concerne, pour cette première visite, nous emprunterons la Loop Road en voiture. Il s'agit en fait d'une route panoramique de 43 km qui nous permet de découvrir les différents attraits touristiques du parc.
La grande majorité du parcours est à sens unique et celui-ci offre des points de vue exceptionnels sur le littoral, les lacs et montagnes.
En premier lieu, nous nous sommes arrêtés à un belvédère afin d'avoir une vue panoramique de la ville de Bar Harbor (voir vidéo C'est à ce moment-là que j'ai découvert qu'il existait un tombolo reliant Bar Harbor à Bar Island.
Un tombolo est créé lorsque la marée est basse. L'eau se retire, permettant un étroit passage qui relie la côte et l'île.
Je me suis informée de la prochaine marée basse. Elle serait à 17h30. Nous nous y rendrons donc en fin de journée (voir vidéo
Nous avons fait un court arrêt au Beaver Dam Pond. Nous n'avons vu aucun castor lors de notre visite. Seule une grosse grenouille a attiré notre attention.
Nous avons également fait un arrêt à Sand Beach, l'unique plage de sable de ce parc (voir vidéo ainsi qu'au Thunder Hole, une petite baie dans laquelle les vagues viennent se fracasser (voir vidéo
Quelques arrêts également le long des falaises ainsi qu'à Otter Cove et puis nous avons fait une petite pause au Jordan Pond House sur l'heure du midi pour s'y restaurer.
Il y avait une longue file d'attente au restaurant. Nous nous sommes donc dirigés à l'étage supérieur. Il y a une petite boutique offrant soupe, sandwiches et grignotines. Le tout était succulent. Cependant, le total de la facture est plutôt élevé.
Un petit détour sur les rives du Lac Jordan nous a permis d'observer un couple pratiquer le paddle bord avec leurs deux petits chiens à leur côté.
Et puis, nous avons pris la route qui mène au sommet du mont Cadillac afin d'avoir une vue panoramique non seulement du parc, mais également de tout le littoral, incluant Bar Harbor (voir vidéo
