About this map

The maritime communities of Greenport and Shelter Island are defined by a complex geography of inlets and harbors. On the north shore, the Long Island RR terminates near the waterfront of Greenport Harbor, a key transit point for the region. The map reveals the intricate shoreline of Shelter Island, where residential developments like Shelter Island Heights, Silver Beach, and Montclair Colony are separated by tidal features such as West Neck Bay and Coecles Harbor.

Genealogists will find a high density of burial sites across the island and mainland, including the Stirling Cemetery and the Shelter Island Presbyterian Church Burial Ground. Local landmarks such as the Shelter Island Windmill and the Dering Harbor Marina reflect the area's long-standing character as a sailing and summer destination. To the south, the village of North Haven occupies a peninsula between Shelter Island Sound and Sag Harbor Bay, connected by the ferry corridor of NY 114.
