Belfast Bay
Belfast Bay is an quietly spectacular anchorage off the coast of Belfast, Maine, sitting within the broader Penobscot Bay system where the Passagassawakeag River meets the Gulf of Maine. You'll drop anchor amid classic Maine scenery — rolling hills, working waterfront, and the kind of small-town charm that Belfast is known for, with the historic downtown just a short dinghy ride away.
