About this map

The coastal island landscape of eastern Maine is defined here by the intricate shoreline of Stinson Neck and the surrounding waters of Eggemoggin Reach and Jericho Bay. Situated on the southern reaches of Deer Isle, the small settlements of Sunshine and Oceanville are connected by local routes like Sunshine Rd and Black Point Rd. A significant cultural landmark, the Haystack Mountains School of Crafts, sits near the southern tip of the neck, illustrating the area's long-standing connection to the arts and education.

The map reveals a dense network of islands and ledges that have long influenced local navigation and maritime history, including Campbell Island, Bear Island, and Hog Island. Across the Pond Island Passage, the settlement of Naskeag occupies the tip of a neighboring peninsula. This 2011 survey captures the modern road network, from Pier Way to the various forest roads, while maintaining the traditional nautical character of the Deer Island Thorofare.
