Take in some unique local music at free summertime concerts at city dock. Cheer as the Navy football team scores a touchdown. Take the family to “Sundays at the Dock,” or join in a true local tradition as you watch the Wednesday Night Races from our dock – perhaps while nursing our signature Pusser's Painkiller.
