About this map

North Haven and the surrounding island chains within West Penobscot Bay are detailed in this coastal topographical study. The landscape is defined by the complex interface of the Atlantic Ocean and the intricate shoreline of the Fox Islands, where Southern Harbor and Pulpit Harbor provide protected maritime access. On the mainland of North Haven, cultural landmarks such as Fuller Cem and Seaview Cem are noted alongside local infrastructure like the Witherspoons Landing Strip, Inc.

Navigational markers and terrain features including Ames Knob and Pendleton Point on Islesboro Island anchor the coastal geography. The presence of numerous ledges and islands, such as Haskell Ledge and Little Bermuda, illustrates the varied maritime hazards and landing points that have shaped the local fishing and sailing economy. Roads like Crabtree Point Rd and Pendleton Point Rd trace the residential and agricultural layout of the islands.
