About this map

The complex archipelago of Casco Bay defines this maritime survey, showcasing the interconnected island communities of Great Chebeague Island and South Harpswell. The map illustrates the navigational reliance of these settlements on water routes, specifically marking the Cliff Island Ferry route connecting Cliff Island to the mainland. Coastal geography is highly detailed, from the sheltered waters of Potts Harbor and Basin Cove to the open expanses of Broad Sound and Merriconeag Sound.

Genealogists and local historians will find value in the specific road networks, such as Harpswell Islands Rd and Potts Point Rd, which provide access to sites like Graveyard Point Cem in South Harpswell. The sheet also identifies numerous smaller landforms like Jewell Island, Hope Island, and Whaleboat Island, alongside distinctive water features including the Basin Cove Falls and the jagged rocks of Mink Rocks and West Brown Cow.
