🚤Understanding the Special Regulations for Bay Bridge Paddle Event

The Coast Guard will enforce a special local regulation for the Bay Bridge Paddle on September 14, 2025, to provide for the safety of life on navigable waterways during this event. Our regulation for marine events within the USCG East District (formerly USCG District 5) identifies the regulated area for this event as between Sandy Point State Park and Kent Island, MD. During the enforcement period, the operator of any vessel in the regulated area must comply with directions from the Patrol Commander or any Official Patrol displaying a Coast Guard ensign.
