2011 Map of New Harbor

About this map

Shaws Wharf serves as a primary landing point along the coastline of this coastal Maine quadrangle, where the maritime character of the region is defined by a complex network of undersea hazards. Navigational transit through Muscongus Bay and the Atlantic Ocean is marked by significant features like Eastern Egg Rock and numerous outcrops including New Harbor Sunken Ledges and Pumpkin Cove Ledge. On the mainland near Lookout Hill, local roads such as McFarland Shore Rd and Rodgers Rd wind toward the shoreline, providing access to prominent headlands like Yellow Head. The map traces vital ferry routes, including the paths connecting New Harbor and Monhegan Island, reflecting the continued importance of water-based travel and industry in this rocky archipelago.
