Our cruising waters begin on the South River, just a short boat ride to The Chesapeake Bay. Our location allows for an easy cruise to Annapolis, Baltimore, St. Michael's, Oxford and many other wonderful boating destinations. On your voyage down the South River you will see the Historic Londontown Manor House (the old state house for Maryland), Quiet Waters Park, the wildlife sanctuary (A great chance to see a Bald Eagle or a Great Blue Heron), and some of the most charming homes in the area. When you enter the Chesapeake Bay you will pass Thomas Point Lighthouse and immediately see the Bay Bridge. From there the treasures of the Chesapeake are all yours to enjoy and take in.
Over 195 miles long and up to 30 miles wide, the Chesapeake Bay is the largest estuary in North America. Nine major rivers feed this arm of the sea, diluting the salty tides with currents of fresh water. Everything for which Annapolis is justly famous--its former stature as colonial America's capital of commerce and culture and its current status as the sailing and seafood capital of the nations owed to the Bay. And the story of both its past and its present--from legendary naval battles to watermen dredging for oysters aboard skip jacks (as oystering is still done on the Chesapeake today) has been played out under sail.
It's Always A Great Day On The Chesapeake Bay!
