This was the first public monument erected in Portland, two hundred and fifty years after the first colonial landing, in 1883.

On the hill inside Bar Island, you can get an excellent view of the city when the weather is good, with the mountains of Acadia National Park in the background, including Mount Cadillac. On the side facing away from the city, large cruise ships are anchored during the season.

The land bridge to Bar Island is dry at low tide and should be hiked 1.5 hours before and 1.5 hours after low tide. The trail leads to a hill in the interior of the island, where you have a good view of the town and the land bridge. However, there is a less traveled trail along the coast around the entire island. https://www.nps.gov/thingstodo/hike-bar-island-trail.htm

Agamont Park is located on a hill overlooking Mount Desert Narrows and Frenchman Bay with its offshore islands, especially Bar Island. The park is named after the Agamont House, Bar Harbor's first hotel. It was built in 1857 and burned down in 1888. The name may come from the term "Aqua Mont" (waterside hill). https://www.hmdb.org/m.asp?m=78293

The Maine Narrow Gauge Railroad Co. & Museum has maintained a narrow gauge railway since 1993, which runs approximately 2.4 km along the coast of the Portland Peninsula and parallel to the Eastern Promenade Trail. The railway tracks date from a time when the Atlantic & St. Lawrence Railroad and later the Grand Trunk Railroad ran from Portland to Montreal. After the East End Rail Bridge was badly damaged by fire in 1984 and was not repaired for economic reasons, the railway line was no longer used. This led to the founding of the non-profit organization with the aim of preserving the railway and making its history unforgettable. https://mainenarrowgauge.org/
