Seal Cove Pond

Located on the quieter western side of Mount Desert Island in Tremont, Seal Cove Pond offers a peaceful retreat near Acadia National Park. The scenic freshwater body is surrounded by dense forest and offers ideal waters for kayaking, canoeing, and freshwater fishing. Visitors can launch non-motorized or low-horsepower watercraft to enjoy scenic mountain backdrops away from busier park trails.
