In summer, head to Hulls Cove Visitor Center to talk to a ranger, pick up a park pass and map, and browse the park store. Here, you'll find information to help plan your visit and learn more about Acadia. You can also join a ranger program, or become a junior ranger.

Several other seasonal contact stations are described at links below, including:

  • Sieur de Monts Nature Center
  • Acadia Gateway Center, Trenton
  • Isleford Historical Museum, Little Cranberry Island
  • Rockefeller Welcome Center, Winter Harbor

In winter, information and park passes are available at the Bar Harbor Chamber of Commerce in downtown Bar Harbor.
