Other Islands
Other islands include White Island and Lunging Island on the New Hampshire side of the border and Duck and Cedar Islands in the state of Maine. White Island features one of the two lighthouses on the New Hampshire coast. Lunging Island, formerly Londoner's Island, was the site of an early trading post for codfish. Today, it is privately owned.
Duck Island lies about 1 mile (1.6 km) to the north and once was used as a bombing range for the US Navy. It has been sold by the Star Island Corporation to the Maine Coastal Heritage Trust, and is kept as a wildlife sanctuary. It is home to a seal colony, and has never supported a human population.
Cedar Island is connected by breakwaters to both Smuttynose Island and Star Island and is privately owned.
