We always wanted to visit Schoodic Point while at Mount Desert Island and did so just recently. The weather was perfect and so were the views. We rode our bicycles around the loop road and it was spectacular. We have visited many spots along the Maine coast but I think that we have a new favorite.

Recently took a a trip out to Maine. First time being there. If you want to enjoy some truly wonder sites, without a ton of people or crowds then you should check out Schoodic for sure. During our stay, we there twice. Once during the day where the scenery and shoreline is incredible. Be sure to stop by Raven's Nest where you can get a close up (but don't get TOO close) of this beautiful sheer cliff face where it meets the water. Also make sure you take a walk on the shoreline just past Blueberry Hill so that you can hear the "applauding river rocks". If you're up for it, do yourself a favor and go back at night. Find a place to park, turn your vehicle and vehicle lights off and look up at the sky. From here the Milky Way Galaxy is visible with the naked eye. You'll be glad you went.

A pull off along the park loop drive, this offers one of the best vistas in the park. Make sure to pull off to enjoy it at the parking area across the road, and take some time to hike back to the left of the steps leading to the cliff, the view of sand beach and rock climbers is quiet and relaxing.

Chasm surrounded by water and gardens.
Reviewed By JasontheGreat
On the park loop road, this stop was more than expected. First, exit the parking area in the middle of the parking area and there is a crosswalk that takes you across the street. Follow a few stairs down and out to a paved platform with rails overlooking the "slot" that the water rushes in and then booms against the rock echoing the sound of thunder. We happened by at just the right time and heard the boom many times. It is exciting to guess which wave will make a sound and which will just be a dud. You can follow the ocean trail from here or scramble over rocks to your heart's content enjoying crashing waves and incredible ocean views.
