13 Fun Things to Do In and Around Acadia National Park 

#acadianationalpark #maine #barharbor
Are you planning a trip to Acadia National Park? We spent 48 Fantastic Hours and found 13 places that you may want to put on your Acadia National Park travel itinerary. Our list includes places to eat, hike, and shop. We’re dedicated to having a good time, so we vetted each option online before adding it to the list. The 48-hours we spent exploring Acadia National Park and the surrounding area (Bar Harbor and Ellsworth) were full of delicious fun. My prior planning paid off, so I’m excited to share the list with you!
A quick note before the list begins. We went on our Acadia National Park trip one week before Memorial Day Weekend. As with many locations in Maine, it’s a time when some places are opening up for the season and others haven’t quite yet. Going early saved us about $80 per night on our hotel room*. Park reservations also weren’t required yet, so we didn’t have to worry about where we could, or couldn’t drive with the park. The only bummer about our timing was not being able to lunch at Jordan Pond House. I would’ve loved to give their popovers and tea a try.
We had a fantastic time in and around Acadia National Park and thumbupabump recommend a trip there!
