Pohick Bay Regional Park Pohick Bay is a water oriented park located on the Potomac River 25 miles south of the nation's capital.

Our boat launch facility is one of only 3 public access points to the Potomac River in northern Virginia and the closest to Washington DC and its famous waterfront. Pohick Bay offers canoes, kayaks, paddle boards and pedal boats for rent on the weekends as well as naturalist guided canoe & kayak tours. In addition to water activities the park also offers family and group camping, hiking, picnic areas and a large play area for children. Pohick Bay is also home of Pirate's Cove Waterpark which provides water fun for the entire family. Pohick Bay Regional Park, located on Mason Neck Pennisula is an ecologically fragile land that shelters an abundance of wildlife, including the bald eagle. Nature lovers can expect to see blue birds, osprey, heron, deer, beavers and rare sightings of river otters.
