Acadia National Park is located in Maine on the rock-
bound shore of Mount Desert Island. Here you will
find granite cliffs side by side with sand, cobblestone
beaches and glacier-carved mountains rising from the
sea, cupping deep lakes in their valleys. The geography of Acadia National Park ranges from
meadows and marshes to dense evergreen
forests. Everywhere the ocean makes its presence
felt, whether by sight, sound or smell. The National
Park Service (NPS) protects this unique resource and
provides a variety of visitor services.
