Anne Arundel County, Maryland
Just south of Baltimore lies Anne Arundel County, a place with more than its fair share of history. It’s home to Annapolis, Maryland’s capital city.
Summers are hot and humid, perfect for days at Sandy Point State Park’s beaches. The area’s known for its blue crabs, so don’t leave without trying a local crab feast.
The Chesapeake Bay hugs the county’s eastern edge with endless opportunities for sailing, fishing, and waterfront dining. Visitors also go to the U.S. Naval Academy, while nature lovers explore the scenic trails of Patapsco Valley State Park.
