North Haven, Island town in Knox County, United States.
North Haven sits on an island in Penobscot Bay, located approximately twelve miles from the mainland city of Rockland in Maine's midcoast region.
The town gained independence from Vinalhaven in 1846, establishing its own administrative structure and developing into a self-sustained maritime community.
North Haven maintains a population of 355 year-round residents who engage in traditional maritime activities, small-scale farming, and local craft production.
The Maine Department of Transportation operates a ferry service that connects North Haven to Rockland with three round trips scheduled each day.
North Haven represents one of only fourteen unbridged island communities in Maine, creating a distinct way of life shaped by maritime transportation.
