DESTINATION

St. Michaels

Seafood and agricultural processing industries now sustain the economy, but the town's status as a commercial port seriously declined after the completion of the Chesapeake Bay Bridge in 1951. Visitors are rediscovering the region's unspoiled heritage, preserved by many years of near isolation. One of the better known yachting centers on the East Coast, St. Michaels draws thousands of sailing enthusiasts each summer.

Self-guiding Tours

A free brochure describing a historic walking tour down streets lined with 19th-century frame houses is available throughout the town; phone (410) 745-9561.

Shopping

Downtown St. Michaels, centering on Talbot Street, boasts specialty shops offering antiques, clothing and handmade items.
