Westport Island is a rural island in the lower Sheepscot River, connected to the mainland by the bridge to Wiscasset. Its shoreline, coves, woods and winding roads shape a quiet, outdoors-oriented setting, with a cool, changeable coastal climate. Residents can enjoy boating, paddling, fishing and walks along local roads, while wooded and waterfront scenery is close at hand. The island’s historic character is visible in its older homes and working waterfront traditions. Everyday shopping, cafes and restaurants are limited on the island, so many errands and dining outings lead to Wiscasset, known for its historic village and shops. There is no major transit network; getting around generally means driving, with bridge access linking the island to nearby mainland routes.
