Today's weather isn't the inviting type for summer cruising, but hat shouldn't stop you from planning one of PropTalk's favorite summer cruises on the Middle Bay.
While generally there are no specific geographic boundaries for the portion of the Chesapeake many folks call the “Middle Bay,” most people consider the expanses of water south of the Bay Bridge and north of the Patuxent River part of that region. And a beautiful region it is. But first you’ll have to wrangle four days off from your boss, and that may be the biggest challenge of your trip.
Start the five-day cruise in Annapolis, which is convenient from many parts of the Bay, and then travel south to Galesville, MD, off the West River. On the third day, hop across the Chesapeake into Eastern Bay to St. Michaels, then head back out into the Bay and jog through Knapps Narrows. From there, head up the Choptank River to the visually pleasing Tred Avon River and Oxford, MD. If you’re cruising to the Middle Bay from the south, you can reverse the order and start out in Oxford.
