It’s no surprise that many people come to Bandon for their retirement years. Its small population, mild climate, beautiful scenery, great golfing and fishing, fun and educational local events, nearby casino, and low crime rates make it an attractive spot for those looking for peace and enjoyment. Bandon also features an active cultural and restaurant scene. The Bandon Playhouse, Bandon’s community theater, as well as a children’s theater and dance studio perform at the Sprague Theater, and a variety of musical performances from all around are brought in as well to entertain Bandon’s residents and visitors.
In addition to the fun opportunities, Bandon has support services for retirees that provide security and assurance that everyone will be taken care of.
