Map of Lower Potomac River and Chesapeake Bay

The Chesapeake Bay and its watershed form a complete 64,000 square-mile ecosystem that is home to over 15 million people and has supported human occupation for 13,000 years. The Chesapeake's natural abundance has fed multitudes, fueled rich economies, and nurtured diverse cultures, and the bay and its surrounding places offer stories, spirit, and mystery while ongoing restoration efforts invite public participation.
