Directions to watch rowing races on Navy’s Upper Course

These driving directions will take you across our river to a private estate where we have been allowed access to watch the races. Please be very careful in parking your car, quiet on the grounds, and pick-up all trash when leaving. You may watch from the shore line or dock which is positioned very close to the finish line of our upper race course. If plugging and address into a GPS device use: Crouches Lane, Annapolis, MD.

From Naval Academy:
Turn right out of Gate 8 onto Route 450 and go over the Severn River on the Naval Academy Bridge. Proceed up the hill, turning left onto Boulters Way just before the entrance ramp for Route 50.
From Route 50: Take Exit 27 for Route 450 towards Naval Academy. After you exit, turn right on Boulters Way.
Once on Boulters Way, the road will bend to the right. Take a left onto S. Winchester Rd. and then another immediate left onto a private drive.
Follow the private drive straight. When the road bends sharply to the right, you will be passing a large house on the left. Just past this house is a grass field on the left where you can park your car. There might be cones marking the entrance to the field.
After you park your car, walk over the hill and down towards the water. If you walk towards the view of the Navy Chapel then bear to the right, you will head towards the private dock which is near the finish line of our upper race course.

Directions to Navy Boathouse and viewing on Navy’s Lower Course
*you will need a photo ID to walk onto Navy campus*

These driving directions will take you to Gate 8 of the Naval Academy. Spectators and guests should park outside of the gate and make the short walk (0.25 miles) to the boathouse. Only cars with Department of Defense stickers will be allowed to drive onto campus. Once at the boathouse, it is another short walk (0.33 miles) to the finish line of the Lower Course.

Route 50 towards Annapolis
Take Exit 24, Rowe Blvd, Annapolis
After approx 1 mile, make a left onto Taylor Ave.
After passing a 7-Eleven, make a right at the T-intersection.
Turn right at the second traffic light and then make another immediate right into a parking area and park there. To get to the boathouse, you need to walk down the hill along the practice baseball field and to the guard shack. Show your photo ID to the guard and continue to walk down the hill. The boathouse is the first building that you will see on the right after the guard shack.

From the boathouse, you can walk to the finish line of the Lower Course. After crossing the road near the boathouse towards the cemetery, take the road that takes you along the water’s edge in the creek (Do not cross over bridge). Once you get to the hospital point fields, walk across field to the right corner of the seawall. The finish line is directly at that corner.
