The Park Loop Road is a paved road for Bicyclists and Cars that takes you around the entire island. The road has pulloffs for hiking, prime photo spots, hidden beaches, and the famous Jordan Pond House Restaurant- home to the famous Popovers! (WORTH EVERY BITE!)

Perfect place for a cute picture together at Hadleys Point Beach, Bar Harbor

This beach is great place to launch a kayak, has free parking, and is never packed. If you arrive in the early mornings, you can watch Seals and Porpoises swimming into the cove. It’s ideal for a romantic morning together! ❤️
