Long and short causeways join the islands between the mainland and Stonington.

To answer the question of who is, or what is Penobscot East :
We work to secure a future for the fishing communities of eastern Maine…
Where Fishing Matters Most
Located on the dock in Stonington, ME we are part of the community we serve. Since our establishment as a 501(c)3 non-profit organization in 2003, we have been committed to building marine stewardship at a local, community level. We serve 50 fishing communities from the islands of Penobscot Bay to the Canadian border, the most fishery-dependent counties on the U.S. East Coast. (from their newsletter)
