Maine is known for its breathtaking coastline, dotted with candy-striped lighthouses and lively seafood shacks, and the jagged peninsulas that shape the unique shoreline. These rocky peninsulas contribute to Maine’s rugged beauty and offer diverse landscapes, charming coastal towns, and recreational opportunities.  We’re highlighting homes for sale on Maine’s iconic peninsulas like Harpswell, Cushing, and Saint George, as well as the Cape Porpoise peninsula in Kennebunkport, the Flying Point Neck peninsula in Freeport, and the Newbury Neck peninsula in Surry.
