The Chesapeake Bay Waterways puzzle by artist Terry Moore features the waterways of the Chesapeake Bay. In short, this 550-piece jigsaw puzzle is a beautiful map for boaters and bay lovers.
About the Artwork
The Chesapeake Bay is the largest estuary in the United States. Meanwhile, its rivers and creeks reach deep into Maryland and Virginia.
In addition, the map is detailed and easy to read. As a result, it’s a great way to learn the geography of the bay.
Because the bay has so many rivers and inlets, every section of the map is interesting to build.

Where to Start
Start with the border, then build the outline of the bay, using the shoreline as a guide, since it stands out right away. Next, work on the town names and labels. After that, piece together the rivers and creeks. Finally, fill in the open water, sorting those pieces by shade.
