Summary and Frequenly Asked Questions:

High above the harbor on nearby Mount Battie stands the best place to see just how beautiful Camden is. This scenic lookout at the rocky top of Mount Battie looks like it is guarding the lovely little seaport and its quaint harbor in Penobscot Bay, dotted by sailboats of all sizes and colors. Camden is even more beautiful in the fall when the trees around the city perform their full colorful show.
