Getting to Acadia
Most people come from the south. Take I-95 north to the city of Augusta, then take ME-3 east through Ellsworth to Mount Desert Island, where most of the park is located. For another route, continue on I-95 north to Bangor, then take ME-1A east to Ellsworth, then join ME-3 as above on to the park.
A regional airport in Bar Harbor (BHB) offers limited airline service and car rental, and is less than 30 minutes from the park. Major airline service and car rental is available in Bangor (BGR), a little over an hour away. We suggest using Expedia when searching for your flights and rental cars. Use the suggested airport code(s) above for the fastest results. The search box defaults to flight searches. To change to a rental car search, simply click the arrows next to the airplane icon in the upper right corner of the box.
