One of the more photographed of the Mount Desert Island area lighthouses, it is the reverse view below that appears on most postcards, making for dramatic views of sea and rock and light. For some reason, the much more easily accessed view above is hardly ever seen!
This is easily found. Simply head for Bass Harbour on the 102A and the road to the light is well-signposted. We went slightly off-season and there were still a dozen or so people there, which must be slightly off-putting for the inhabitants. This light was built in 1858.
