Hulls Cove Visitor Center

Highlight • Rest Area

The Hulls Cove Visitor Center in Bar Harbor, Maine, is the primary visitor center for Acadia National Park and a great place to start your visit. Before you go, check the seasonal hours on the park's website. There is a covered pavilion in the parking lot to gather information and catch the Island Explorer bus, which is a great way to get around the park during the busy summer season. There are 52 stone steps to the visitor center, where you can purchase your entrance pass, consult with rangers for trip planning, explore the Artist-In-Residence program's art, and visit the gift shop for souvenirs. If you need an accessible entrance, follow signs to the rear of the building.
