Bailey Island is a quiet lobstering community that delights visitors summering on the Maine coast. Sandy or rocky beaches, easy access to waterside hiking, kayaking, and bicycling make this half mile by two mile island a special place. Three restaurants (two with bars), churches, boat charters (sail, touring, fishing), and a general store make life here 'island easy.' Everything to do on Bailey Island is only a short walk away.
For those who love to shop the towns of Brunswick and Freeport offer major name brand outlet stores for bargain hunters, as well as malls and discount stores that are all within a few minutes drive to the mainland. The scenic and historical communities of Boothbay Harbor, Portland and Wiscassett are all within an hour drive; in addition, golf courses, movie theaters, performance theater, art galleries and museums, live music, cultural festivals, horseback riding and restaurants are also short distance away.
