Anchorage off North Point State Park, a peninsula between the Patapsco and Back rivers near the head of the Chesapeake Bay, at Edgemere in Baltimore County.
Guide
Approach and anchoring
Open water off the park shore, approached from the bay. Mud bottom. Sheltered from west through south-east winds, open to the south-west, so it suits a settled forecast rather than an overnight in fresh airs.
Practical
Bill's Boats lies 0.7 nm to the east and Layne's Marina 1.3 nm to the south-west.
Ashore
North Point State Park covers the peninsula ashore, with two fishing piers, hiking trails and a swimming area. The park marks the site of the 1814 Battle of North Point, fought during the British advance on Baltimore.
