Pemaquid Lake (aka Pemaquid Pond) encompasses 1,537 acres. It’s about seven miles long, with a perimeter of 23 miles. The maximum depth is 61 feet, while the mean depth is 20 feet. The water quality is average. 

Ideal habitat is found here for smallmouth bass. Other fisheries include brown trout, white perch and pickerel. A state-owned boat launch is located in Nobleboro. From Pemaquid Lake, boaters can access Biscay Pond, Duck Puddle Pond and the Pemaquid River. 

Nobleboro touts itself as “The Little Town with the Big Heart.” A walking/driving map developed by the Nobleboro Conservation Commission and Nobleboro Historical Society will guide you through the town’s environmental and historical areas. 

Bremen is located on the eastern side of Pemaquid Peninsula. The lake is part of the town’s western boundary, separating it from Damariscotta.
