Review:
Accessible in about 30 minutes (by private boat, ferry, or water taxi) from Mount Desert Island or Northeast Harbor, Little Cranberry Island is a delightful destination for day-trippers or vacationers. Not only will you find miles of deserted shoreline for beach-combing, swimming, and kayaking but there are also some interesting walking trails (a downloadable map is available) and a wonderfully relaxed island atmosphere. Rainy days offer the perfect time to visit the Islesford Historical Museum to see relics of island life from the 19th and 20th centuries, or explore the Islesford Pottery and the Islesford Artists Gallery. There are several holiday rental cottages available if you wish to linger for a while and enjoy the island lifestyle.
