2014 Map of Cape Elizabeth

About this map

Cape Elizabeth defines this stretch of the Maine coastline, where the land fragmentizes into numerous rocky points and coves south of Casco Bay. Residential enclaves such as Delano Park, Shore Acres, and Elizabeth Park are established along the interior roads, while the shoreline is a complex network of maritime hazards and small harbors including Richmond Island Harbor and Pond Cove. The landscape is a mix of wooded rises like Blue Hill and significant freshwater features such as Great Pond and Richards Pond. Geodetic markers and local history intersect at the Cape Elizabeth Church Cem, while the southern reaches show the tidal influence of the Spurwink River. Off the coast, the map details an extensive array of named ledges and reefs, from Trundy Reef to West Cod Ledge, indicating the area's long-standing relationship with the Atlantic.
