Bohannon Anchorage
✨ Hidden gem
Bohannon Anchorage sits in quietly tucked tidal waters near this small unincorporated community on Virginia's Middle Peninsula, about 3.5 miles southwest of Mathews. You're dropping the hook in classic Chesapeake Bay country here — sheltered, low-key waters surrounded by the marshes and woodlands that define Mathews County's coastline. It's a no-frills spot where the appeal is the calm and the scenery rather than any shoreside buzz.
