Sagadahoc County delivers coastal living with real character, shaped by river, sea, and centuries of shipbuilding. In Bath, the “City of Ships,” brick storefronts frame a walkable downtown and a working waterfront where heritage meets innovation. Learn the area’s seafaring story at the Maine Maritime Museum, an engaging, family-friendly stop with hands-on exhibits and river cruises. Popham Beach State Park in Phippsburg offers sweeping dunes and surfable swells, perfect for a quick escape after work or a Saturday picnic. Nearby Georgetown adds quiet coves and classic village scenes, while the City of Bath supports residents with services and events throughout the year.
Households appreciate strong public schools. RSU 1 serves Bath, Woolwich, Arrowsic, and more, and the district emphasizes both academics and real-world learning.
