Provisioning in Southwest Harbor.

Local markets are part of the charm of being in Maine.
Often they’re combined with a gas station, and they vary from just offering basics to gourmet havens.
In Southwest Harbor you’ll find a gem right on the main drag, so you’ll have to get your gas elsewhere.
Sawyer’s Market has been serving Mt. Desert Island since 1946 and you can find the best of almost everything delicious on their shelves.
From fine Italian olive oil to local fish.
If you are lucky enough to have a boat, or are chartering from Hinckley, Sawyer’s Market should be in your address book.
Sawyer’s Market, 344 Main St., PO Box 461, Southwest Harbor, ME 04679, (207) 244-3315
