An experience not to be missed. Rent a bike or bring your own and cycle around the peninsula. We went back the next day in the car to spend more time in the places we particularly enjoyed. Wonderful scenery, safe cycling - amazing.

Having visited Bar Harbor and Acadia National Park frequently we were well aware of its beauty and charm. On our last visit we decided to explore the mainland part of Acadia-the Schoodic Peninsula. What a beautiful part of the park!!! I wish we had visited before now. It consists of the trees and water beauty we were used to seeing but the granite rocks and interspersed with black lava! The beauty of the point of the peninsula is breathtaking. I will definitely visit it again!

Excellent place to cycle for those a bit traffic shy as the two lane, one way road for most of the loop allows for a decent cushion between the cyclists and traffic. Year round bathroom at the base of the education/research center.

I am glad we got to see this side of Acadia but there isn't much doing here. The views of the rocks and the sea are wonderful. The towns around this area are small and consist of fisherman and their families. The area that houses the museum was once used by the US Navy as a radio communication station. There are programs offered here for children in the summer.

If you are looking for the most spectacular Maine Coastline scenic views, this is where you need to come. If you visit Acadia & don't come to Schoodic Peninsula, well . . . you blew it, buddy!

Lovely, lovely wild place. A rocky peninsula with about a six-mile two lane loop road. Just like Acadia only wilder, much more deserted (like Acadia before 9AM). It's a bit out of the way. I'd say when going to or from Acadia by car you have to go through Ellsworth so head North from there and get up to Schoodic. Don't necessarily wait for a rainy day and go from Bar Harbor because the fog can easily kill the view. We ride bikes so we loved the loop road. There is very little traffic. Saw few people even in the parking lot. Make sure to bring food and water tho of course you'll pass stores getting there and going home.

Pristine and quiet portion of the park. We went on a cold, rainy day, and no one was around. Not a ton of places to go but the views were spectacular despite the weather. We couldn't see Cadillac Mountain with all the fog. But the surf crashing on the rocks was amazing. There is a small campus where school students go for in depth learning experiences. We went to the Rockefeller building, which had some exhibits. The place has an interesting naval history worth checking out. Don't miss this one!

Less busy than Mount Desert Island. Some great views the Mark Island Lighthouse and the Point. Very relaxing area of the park.

One can pull over and enjoy the ocean views, pink granite rocks, ducks bobbing in the ocean, the salt air, or tidal pools almost at will without paying a park entrance fee. A 2.8 mile hike on the Schoodic Head loop trail (easy to moderate) will take under 2 hours, and scrambling on the pink granite rocks or listening to the ocean could take longer. :-) A ride around the park loop road will take less than an hour. Enjoy!

On a visit to Bar Harbor we made several visits to Cadillac Mountain - because that is what you do there. Perusing the books and pamphlets I found mention of Schoodic Peninsula, so we set off to see what it was like. It is SPECTACULAR - not nearly as big as Cadillac Mountain but every bit as interesting scenic views, very interest geology and very few people. The area leading to this portion of Arcadia National Park is very quaint and definitely where the lobstermen live!!!! Add it to your list.
