Anchors Away!

By AnneMay 7, 20202 min read

Anchors Away!
The anchor at the Ocean City Life Saving Station Museum weighs 2.5 tons and is thought to be the largest anchor on the East Coast. It's a great spot for taking photos, and many families and friends make it a tradition to take photos there every visit. We asked our friends on Facebook if they ever used the anchor as a photo op,  and this was their reply!
