North Haven is a tiny island off the coast of Rockland, Maine. Few people know about it, and those that do have been coming here through generations. There are approximately 350 year round residents, and in the summer the population increases to over a 2,000. To reach North Haven you must drive to the small fishing town of Rockland, Maine, board the Capt. Neil Burgess (our ferry) and take the hour ride across Penobscot Bay. Aboard this ferry is a place where you can rest, catch up on the latest gossip, and enjoy the view. The big windows allow you to see some of the surrounding landmarks: Brown's Head Lighthouse, the Camden Hills, and the Monument on Fiddlers Ledge which marks the entrance of the Thoroughfare. As you enter the waterway between the two islands of North Haven and Vinalhaven, you will see the beautiful summer homes that dot the shores of the scenic islands. The small town of North Haven is the ending point of your ferry ride. As you unload on the ramp, your first sight on North Haven is our ticket office, which was only built to replace the old one. Across the street from that is Cooper's Landing. It is a small snack bar/ restaurant/ice cream shop that is only open in the summer when the population is the highest. Most high school students either work there, baby-sit, mow lawns, clean, or do other odds and ends for the summer residents. North Haven is quite a small island, perfect for walking, biking, skateboarding, running, sailing, and many other out door activities.
