About this map

Bailey Island serves as the focal point of this coastal survey, highlighting the intricate maritime geography of Casco Bay and the Atlantic Ocean. The settlement pattern is concentrated along the western edge of the island, connected to the mainland via the distinctive Bailey Island Cobwork Bridge. Local transportation is defined by W Shore Rd and Pasture Rd, which facilitate access to maritime centers like the Mackerel Cove Marina.

The surrounding waters are crowded with navigational hazards and small landmasses, including Ragged Island, Mark Island, and Flag Island. Numerous ledges and shoals, such as Pond Island Ledges, Dick Shoal, and Saddleback Ledge, indicate the complex seafloor topography. This 2011 record also notes offshore markers like East Brown Cow and David Castle, illustrating the careful charting required for safe passage in these Maine waters.
