About Bay Life Apparel

Bay Life was founded on Maryland's scenic Kent Island, inspired by the rich coastal lifestyle of the Eastern Shore. From a single heat press in a living room overlooking Cox Creek, we’ve grown into a family-owned and operated performance fishing and coastal lifestyle brand. Our customers span from the Chesapeake to California, Maine to Mexico, Canada to Costa Rica, and throughout the Gulf of Mexico and Caribbean Islands.

Each bay and coastal area has its unique character, but for locals, it’s a source of heritage, livelihood, and pride.
