A "dozen raw" at my favorite local seafood restaurant is about as close to the ocean as I can get without an investment in airfare. In my case, sea-legs and sailboats have never been an option. Therefore any journey to the coast whether for business or pleasure has always been a special experience for me. Over the years I have seen much of the US shoreline and marveled at the diversity and beauty of our many beaches and unique costal geography. Truthfully though, I was unprepared for the splendid beauty of the Maine coastline, specifically the area around Bar Harbor and particularly the rugged and dazzling scenery found at Acadia National Park. marshiecajayon@gmail.com (Joseph Patrick) Thu, 29 May 2008 00:00:00 -0700 http://www.smarttravelreport.com/articles/2945/1/Bird-Watching-Mecca---338-Species-At-Acadia-National-Park/Page1.html When it comes to birding, Acadia National Park is a mecca for sightings.

But by fall quiet space is easier to find especially if you’re prepared to camp and hike in the park. kristi.e@agentsofvalue.com (Cliff Calderwood) Tue, 08 Apr 2008 00:00:00 -0700 http://www.smarttravelreport.com/articles/2942/1/Acadia-Nationl-Park---An-Outdoor-Enthusiasts-Paradise/Page1.html If you truly love the outdoors and embrace all of the sports it offers than Acadia National Park is the place for you.
