State Route 102 (SR 102) is a north-south state highway located on Mount Desert Island in eastern Maine. As of 2007, its southern terminus is located at an intersection with SR 102A in Tremont on the southern part of the island. Its northern terminus is at intersection with SR 3 in Bar Harbor, a terminus it shares with SR 198.
SR 102 begins in the south at the intersection of Harbor Drive and Tremont Road in Tremont. SR 102A also has its signed northern terminus (geographically western) at this intersection. SR 102 runs due north, entering Southwest Harbor and intersecting the other end of SR 102A south of the town center. Continuing north, SR 102 enters the town of Mount Desert and Acadia National Park. Near Somesville, SR 102 intersects its former western loop on the island and later intersects SR 3/SR 198 near the Mount Desert Campground. SR 3 has its eastern terminus at this intersection, but is generally not assigned cardinal directions as it loops the eastern half Mount Desert Island in order to avoid confusion. Heading north, SR 102 is concurrent with SR 198 as the two routes enter the northwestern corner of Bar Harbor. Just before reaching Thompson Island in on the Trenton town line, the highway meets up with SR 3 once again. SR 102 and SR 198 both terminate at this intersection, with SR 3 continuing north (signed west) onto the Maine mainland.
