Soil conditions, frost risk and crop weather for Swan Point.
Swan Point unfolds along the Potomac River, a quiet expanse where the land exhales the scent of salt marsh and pine. It lies 7.8 miles south-south-west of Wicomico, MD (from Wicomico, MD: bearing 197°T), and is situated 4.3 miles north-east of Colonial Beach. The terrain, a gentle slope toward the water, is softened by stands of loblolly pine and the broad, shimmering surface of the river itself. Here, the air often carries a humid warmth, thick with the hum of unseen insects and the distant calls of waterfowl. Sunlight, especially as it begins its slow descent, casts long, buttery shadows that stretch across the low-lying fields and the weathered docks that jut into the water. The character of Swan Point is one of understated natural beauty, a place where the wildness of the Chesapeake Bay watershed still holds sway. The history of Swan Point is inextricably linked to the fertile lands and the vital waterway it commands. For centuries, this region has been shaped by agriculture, with tobacco once being the dominant crop, leaving behind a legacy of sprawling estates and a deep connection to the soil. The local economy, though diversified, still retains echoes of its agrarian past, with a continued focus on farming and, increasingly, on the recreational opportunities the river provides. Anglers and boaters are drawn to Swan Point’s accessible shores, seeking the bounty of the Potomac and the quiet escape it offers. It is a place where the rhythm of the tides and the cycles of the seasons still dictate much of daily life.
