Little Kennebec Bay and the estuaries of the Machias River and East Machias River dominate this coastal Washington County landscape. The area is a complex network of peninsulas and coves, including Sanborn Cove, Larrabee Cove, and Shipyard Cove. Higher ground is marked by features like Pumpkin Ridge, Howard Mtn, and Seashore Mtn. Cultural and educational institutions are centered in the larger settlements, notably the Univ of Maine at Machias and the Machias Valley Airport. Genealogists will find several burial grounds mapped, such as Longfellow Cem, Court Street Cem, and O'Brien Cem. The rugged Downeast shoreline is characterized by distinctive points and beaches, from the historic Fort O'Brien Point to the stones of Jasper Beach near Bucks Harbor.
