Fishing Bay

Fishing Bay is a large saltwater bay in Dorchester County, Maryland, tucked into the Eastern Shore before it opens south into the Chesapeake. You'll drop anchor off here and take in the wide, open water surroundings with that classic Chesapeake marshland quietude all around you. It's a scenic, sheltered spot to pause and soak up the low-lying shoreline before continuing your passage.
