Biddeford

Built around the waterpower of the Saco River falls, Biddeford grew into a southern Maine mill city. The river marks the boundary with neighboring Saco before reaching Saco Bay and the Atlantic, while the city’s shoreline includes the beaches and tidal waters around Biddeford Pool. Red-brick mill buildings beside the falls recall the textile industry that shaped local growth in the 19th and early 20th centuries; many now house shops, studios, homes and food businesses. Downtown retains the compact, working character of a river town. Browse additional webcams from the surrounding area to extend your view of Maine’s Saco Bay coast.
