Travel to Maine: Acadia National Park

Acadia National Park

As someone who had been to countless national parks, I can honestly say that this is one of my favorites! #acadianationalpark has so many places to climb rocks along the shore. But if that isn’t your speed, there’s also plenty of regular trails and beautiful scenic drives nearby. Not to mention, it’s not too far from Bar Harbor where there are tons of cute little shops and great local food. Also, not to mention there is extremely fresh and cheap lobster everywhere🥹🥹

⭐️Overall rating: 5/5
