Down East Nature Tours

Down East Nature Tours has been led by Michael J. Good out of Bar Harbor, Maine, since 1993, with a focus on Mt. Desert Island, Acadia National Park and the coast and forests of Down East Maine. The operation specialises in personalised tours for individuals, couples and small family groups, pairing identification by call and habit with broader ornithology and wetland-ecology teaching. The guide also runs occasional trips along the Neotropical migratory pathway into Cuba and Ecuador, and manages the Three Pines Sanctuary as a study site near Bar Harbor. The business positions itself as an educational nature-tour outfit rather than a high-throughput operator.
