Bar Island Land Bridge

The Bar Island Land Bridge is a natural causeway that connects Bar Island to Bar Harbor at low tide, allowing visitors to walk across a sandy path that is submerged during high tide. This dynamic landscape offers scenic views of the surrounding waters and the iconic Acadia National Park backdrop. Time your visit for low tide to fully appreciate the experience, and be mindful of the rising water to avoid being stranded. The nearby Shore Path offers a leisurely stroll along the coast, making it a good pairing for a visit to the bridge. Look out for local wildlife along the way.
