About this map

Searsport anchors the northern reaches of Penobscot Bay in this 2011 survey, showing a landscape defined by its deep-water access and industrial maritime infrastructure. The coastal profile is marked by significant features like Mack Point and the large expanse of Sears Island, which shelters Stockton Harbor. Inland, a network of small ponds and brooks including McClure Pond and Mill Brook drain toward the coast, supporting a series of historical water-control structures such as the Mill Brook Dam and Mason Pond Dam.

Genealogists will find a high density of burial sites including Mount Hope Cemetery, Smart Cemetery, and Gordon Cemetery. The map also details the southern settlements of East Northport and Bayside, where the Little River meets the bay near the Belfast Reservoir Number One. Large conservation areas like Moose Point State Park preserve the natural shoreline between the active port facilities and residential communities.
