This short section of the Ocean Path Trail in Acadia National Park is a 0.7 mile out-and-back hike along some large sea shore rocks at Otter Point. The entire length of the Ocean Path Trail at Acadia runs north until reaching Sand Beach, about 2 miles north of where this trail starts, but I did not have time to hike the entire trail.

The Ocean Path Trail at Otter Point is a fun little spot to park and explore on the rocky coastline of Acadia. From this trail you get sweeping views of southeastern Acadia National Park, the Atlantic Ocean, and the scenic Acadia coastline.

Before you leave...

MyHikes is an indie web platform aimed to make exploring public trails easier for everyone. The site has no investors and is owned and operated by one person, Dave Miller (Founder & Admin). As the Founder, main contributor, and doer-of-all-things for MyHikes, I share my trips with over-detailed write-ups for fun on a volunteer basis and I believe that public trail information should be available to everyone.

It takes a lot of time 🕦, money 💰, and effort (including espresso shots ☕) to run MyHikes, including hiking , mapping , writing , and publishing new trails with high-quality content... along with building new features, moderating, site maintainance, and app development for iOS and Android . I simply ask that if you find MyHikes' trail guides helpful to please consider becoming a Supporter to help keep the site, iOS, and Android apps available to everyone.

Supporters unlock website and in-app perks with a one-time payment of $25 (you renew) 😎👍. Or you can simply make a Donation of your choice without a MyHikes user account. Otherwise, telling your friends about MyHikes is the next-best thing - both quick and free 🎉

Thanks for visiting MyHikes and have a great hike!️
