The confluence of the Mattaponi River and the Pamunkey River forms the headwaters of the York River at the tip of the peninsula where West Point is situated. This strategic Tidewater location is defined by its extensive marshlands, including Eltham Marsh and Lee Marsh, which dominate the western shoreline. The town's grid is dense with history, featuring local landmarks such as Sunny Slope Cem and Saint Theresas Cem. Transportation infrastructure is a central theme, with the Lord Delaware Bridge and Eltham Bridge providing critical crossings that connect the peninsula to neighboring King and Queen and New Kent counties.
