The Blue Crab

There’s nothing more “Chesapeake” than crabbing. Many vacation memories have been made crabbing from a boat or dock trying to tempt the famous Blue Crab into a net with a chicken neck on a string or the use of a crab pot. Whatever your method, the goal is a table covered with newspaper and hot steamed crabs! Whether steamed or combined with other ingredients into your favorite crab dish, they are a delicious part of a Chesapeake Bay vacation.

Crabbing is fun for the entire family and the ritual of eating these tasty crustaceans will become a lifelong memory.

Enjoy the water trails of Talbot and Dorchester County!

The Chesapeake Bay is the largest estuary in the U.S. (An estuary is a body of water that is open at one end to the ocean, in which salt water from the ocean mixes with fresh water.) The Bay and its rivers and creeks are a paradise for coastal paddlers.

Enjoy the breathtaking views, pristine marshlands and waterfowl as you paddle our unspoiled waterways. It’s a paradise for paddlers with endless options for exploration.
