GET ON THE WATER

When it comes to bountiful aquatic resources, we've got a lot to brag about. Anne Arundel County's rivers, streams and coves form over 533 miles of shoreline. We claim the Chesapeake Bay, the nation's largest estuary, as our very own playground. Glimpses of sparkling water can be had even from the middle of downtown Historic Annapolis. It's no wonder countless people come to play on the water here.

Whether you're already an experienced sailor or kayaker, a day-tripping motor boater or a beginner who yearns to spend some time on the Chesapeake Bay or the winding streams, creeks, and rivers that flow to this crown jewel of the Mid-Atlantic, we can provide the information you need.
