Seal Harbor, Maine on Mount Desert Island

Seal Harbor, Maine, located on the southeastern part of Mount Desert Island close to Acadia National Park, is actually not a township at all but part of the municipality of Mount Desert which covers 25,699 acres and has an approximate population of 2,109 (per the year 2000 census). There are often many sailing and other vessels anchored in Seal Harbor adding to the seaside ambiance. A quaint and chic little village offering peaceful views of the harbor, it has become the preferred summering place for many of the rich and famous. For “less affluent” locals and visitors alike, the public beach (next to Route 3 in Seal Harbor) offers a less crowded alternative to the better known Sand Beach near the beginning of the Park Loop Road.

A couple scenic spots of note is Little Long Pond, located on the north side of Route 3, and Stanley Brook which is beside the Stanley Brook Entrance to Acadia National Park. This is a two-way section of the Park road that leads to Wildwood Stables and Jordan Pond Restaurant.
