Eastern Shore of Virginia and Maryland The "Eastern Shore" is the eastern side of the Chesapeake Bay, and it includes parts of Virginia and Maryland. Maryland's Eastern Shore is connected to the rest of the state by the Bay Bridge, which crosses 4.5 miles of the Bay between Annapolis and Kent Island.
