Chesapeake Bay is home to a large number of lighthouses, buoys and other navigation aides.

Thomas Point Lighthouse, near Annapolis, Maryland

The Thomas Point Shoal Lighthouse, originally built in 1875, is one of only 10 lighthouses to be named a National Historic Landmark, the highest recognition that a historic structure can receive. The lighthouse is also the only screw-pile light on the Chesapeake Bay still in its original position.
