澎湖地名之旅Part40海豚村．沙港
在清朝雍正五年（公元一七二五年），澎湖行政區域開始規劃為十三「澳」（鄉），八十二「社」（村）。
目前的湖西鄉，規劃成三個「澳」即林投、奎壁及鼎灣三個「澳」。目前的沙港村，屬「鼎灣澳」管轄，並將沙港村劃分成三個「社」，即「沙港頭」、「土地公前」及「水窟」三個「社」。
這三個「社」的位置如下：
─沙港頭社：即在目前沙港村廣聖殿神廟附近的聚落。
─土地公前社：即在沙港村東側，現在叫做「東港」的聚落。
─水窟社：即在今沙港村西側，目前叫做「水窟」的聚落。
清朝雍正五年將沙港村三個聚落規劃成三個「社」（村），迄今已有兩百多年歷史，地名仍然未改變，可見古代如以當地環境或某種象徵物為地名，就較易沿襲下來。
例如「沙港頭社」這個聚落，相傳古代在「廣聖殿」神廟後曾堆積一大片沙礫地，地形向海中伸展出去，形成一個小半島，早年凡是有小半島形狀的海岸，先民都叫做「頭」，「沙港頭」這個地名就是由此而來。
「土地公前社」，相傳早年沙港村東側有座小土地公廟，廟前廣場這個聚落，就以「土地公前」為地名，小土地公廟後來則改建成目前的「北極殿」。
至於「水窟社」，是因為沙港村西側沿岸原來有一片沼澤地，「窟」是閩南話，如翻譯成國語就是「池」，「水窟」就是「池塘」，現在沙港村西岸仍然能看到古代「水窟」的遺跡，如果不圍築防坡堤，古代原有的那一大片沼澤，現在必然還完整地存在著。
光復後，即將「沙港頭」、「水窟」及「土地公前」三個聚落合併成一個村─沙港村。
沙港這個地名的演變較特別，用滄海桑田來形容十分適當，因為該村的地貌，古今不一樣了，唯一未曾改變的是，自古至今，沙港村居民擅長圍捕海豚。
