When the weather in Maine gets warm all we want to do is head outside for some of those classic Vacationland breezes, refreshing hours on the water, and fun with the family. The only problem is choosing where to go. With so many options ranging from mountain lakes to rocky coast, you might just end up visiting the same places over and over to avoid indecision. If that sounds like you, we have a great option for you! This lake near Acadia National Park has a great beach and offers tons of fun.

Welcome to Echo Lake Beach located on Mount Desert Island near Southwest Harbor.

This beautiful fresh-water lake sits nestled between forest trees and the views are almost as refreshing as swimming.

The beach has plenty of room for lounging, but the water here is so warm you'll probably want to wade and swim.

And we love that the views include the high walls of Beech Mountain on the western side of the lake. Adventurous people might consider doing the hike leading up the mountain before dipping into the water to cool down.

Echo Lake Beach is also a great option for young kids as the water remains shallow for a long distance from the sandy beach.

Best of all, this place is beautiful year-round! Choose a warm day in the fall to enjoy the water and you'll also have the opportunity to enjoy Maine's famous fall foliage.
