Westport is an island community where spruce-lined lanes end at tidal coves, lobster boats idle at moorings, and sunrise over the Sheepscot sets the day’s pace. Connected to the mainland just minutes from Wiscasset, it offers quick access via U.S. 1 to Bath, Boothbay Harbor, and Damariscotta, yet retains a quiet, year-round character supported by an active town government and volunteers you can get to know at the Town of Westport Island.
Nature is part of daily life. Trails at the Squam Creek Preserve cared for by the Kennebec Estuary Land Trust wind through salt marsh and forest, while nearby Dodge Point Public Reserved Land and the ocean beaches at Reid State Park expand weekend options. With calm backwaters and broad river channels, the island is ideal for paddling, sailing, and casting a line.
Families appreciate flexible school choices. Many students attend the Wiscasset School Department, AOS 98 Boothbay Region Schools, or the independent Lincoln Academy in nearby Newcastle. Everyday needs are met close by, and healthcare is anchored by LincolnHealth’s Miles Campus in Damariscotta. All of this sits within scenic Lincoln County, where small-town connections still matter.
