On the Rhode River in Galesville, Pirate’s Cove is one of the Bay’s most-beloved dock bars: a classic open-air waterfront bar where boaters tie up alongside locals for cold drinks, live music on weekends, and the easy-going summer pace of the West River community. The dock-and-dine crowd is loyal, the crab selection is consistent, and the combination of live music, water views, and an unpretentious welcoming atmosphere makes this a legendary stop on the Chesapeake boating circuit.
