Review & FAQ:

Located on the southeast side of Mount Desert Island, which is the beautiful Acadia National Park, Little Hunters Beach is a secluded spot that is sought after by painters, rock collectors, and people seeking peace and quiet. It is hidden from view of the road and accessed by a stairway that takes guests down to beach level.

This beach isn’t covered in sand, but rather in pebbles that have been rounded and smoothed over thousands of years by ocean currents. There is no lifeguard present at this beach, nor are there any facilities, but guests probably wouldn’t find swimming here too enjoyable anyway given that water temperatures hardly ever exceed 55 degrees fahrenheit.
