Description |
English: Title: Ocean Highways; Background image from overlook over bay with islands and rainbow; Islands are named; a series of images is presented of boats through the ages Frenchman Bay extends seven miles between Mount Desert Island and the Schoodic Peninsula, which lies beyond the Porcupine Islands. For centuries humans have plied these bountiful wateres to fish, trade, and enjoy the scenery. In the long struggle to possess North America, French frigates hid behind the Porcupine Islands to prey on English waships, which led to the name "Frenchman Bay." Early European settlers crisscrossed the bay in schooners, sloops, and fishing boats to harvest the bay's abundance. Beginning in the late 1800s, tourists arrived by steamboats and pleasure yachts, establishing Bar Harbor as popular resort.
