Chesapeake Bay is the largest estuary in the United States and harbours a variety of animal and plant species, as well as important urban centres, including Baltimore and Annapolis. The Chesapeake Bay Watershed spans six states and the District of Columbia, making it a strategically and economically important region. Pivotal historic moments of the USA, including some battles of the American Revolutionary War, were also played out here. Chesapeake Bay is home to several freshwater mussels, which are vital in sustaining and creating aquatic habitats in the region. If you’d like to learn more about the region’s ecological importance, visit the Chesapeake Bay Environmental Center in Grasonville.
