Welcome to the Schoodic Peninsula, one of the more remote areas of Acadia National Park. Added to the park in 1929, the Schoodic area features outstanding scenic beauty, and protects important natural and cultural resources. Visitors are invited to enjoy invigorating hikes through spruce forests, breathtaking views of rocky beaches, and a wide variety of plant and animal life that can be found here.
Ten signs have been placed at scenic locations throughout the park's Schoodic area. Together, the signs weave a story of how the sea has influenced human lives and culture through time, and describe the geologic forces that created the landscape. The signs also provide orientation points for visitors. Most signs are 36 by 24 inches or slightly larger, about the size of a typical office bulletin board. Some are displayed as upright panels on seven-foot-tall frames. Others angle over the tops of large granite stones
