My name is Chris Dodge and I live right here in the great state of Tennessee. My family and I are full adventurers filled with passion to see the amazing things our state has to offer. We are avid hikers and have explored many different places in Tennessee and beyond but we are always thankful to be living in such a glorious state.
Bar Harbor is a popular destination for Maine residents and outside visitors alike. The town has a lot of history and shares the island with our only national park, Acadia. There are a lot of reasons to visit this famous port town. One very good reason to join in on all the Atlantic fun is the amazing seafood restaurants we have to offer. We feel as though these are great restaurants that really deserve a spotlight and once you visit, we are sure you will say the same.
Bar Harbor is a port town right on Mount Desert Island. The proximity to the sea means fresh and amazing seafood, right from the sea to your plate.
From the classic Down East decorations to their exceptional menu, Getty's has been a Bar Harbor favorite for over 40 years. Once you are done with your meal, make sure to step downstairs for their unique souvenir gift shop.
