Guide to North Haven
Everything you need for your island visit
The Island Guide
Quick Reference
By sea, mostly
Take the Maine State Ferry from Rockland — it's about an hour across Penobscot Bay, and the ride alone is worth it. Ferries run year-round with seasonal schedules. You can also come by private boat or seaplane.
Slow down
The roads are quiet enough to hear the wind. Bike the loops, paddle the harbor, wander into the galleries — or just sit by the water and let the island set the pace. North Haven is a place to slow down and reconnect.
Eat well
Stop by the market for coffee, pastries, and provisions. And join us for Monday Night Dinner — a three-course, prix fixe dinner on select summer Mondays by chef Ben Jackson. Reservations required.
Island time is real
Cell service can be spotty. The market carries essentials, but if you need something specific, plan ahead. And don't fight the pace — island time is real.
