My wife and I had a fantastic day climbing on Otter Cliffs! Not much experience prior, but our guide Mike made us comfortable and we were climbing in no time. Great experience from booking to belaying! Highly recommend.

Had a great experience. My first time outdoors but climb weekly in a gym. Guide was super knowledgeable and chose routes based on our preferences. Easily best part of my trip to Bar Harbor!
