Penobscot Bay

Encyclopedia : P : PE : PEN : Penobscot Bay


Penobscot Bay originates from the mouth of Maine's Penobscot River. There are many islands in this bay, and on them, some of the country's most well-known summer colonies. The bay served as portal for the one time "lumber capital of the world," namely; the city of Bangor. Both the bay and the river that feeds it are named after the native tribes that once called the entire river their home.
