2018 Map of Isle Au Haut West

About this map

Robinson Point Light stands on the western shore of the island of Isle Au Haut, guiding mariners through the complex waters where Isle Au Haut Bay meets Merchant Row. This coastal landscape is dominated by the western reaches of Acadia National Park, where the interior heights of Bald Mtn and Wentworth Mtn overlook a deeply indented shoreline. Numerous small islands and ledges, such as Merchant Island and Kimball Island, create a protected maritime corridor. For genealogists and local historians, the map identifies several remote burial sites, including Merchant Island Cem, Turners Cem, and Duck Harbor Cem, which speak to the long-standing isolation and self-sufficiency of these island communities. The island's limited road network, consisting of Main Rd and Lighthouse Rd, connects small coves like Moores Harbor and Duck Harbor to the primary settlement area.
