Things To Do
Annapolis Historic District
Annapolis is the capital of Maryland and was one of the first cities to be designated a National Historic Landmark District, an area that includes top historic attractions like the William Paca House, St. Anne's Church, and the Maryland State House. Take a walk down mainstreet to enjoy shopping, restaurants and a great view of Ego Alley.
United States Naval Academy
The U.S. Naval Academy Museum was established in 1845 to commemorate the longstanding traditions of the U.S. Navy and Marines. Its mission is to preserve various artifacts and memorabilia related to engagements, significant achievements, training at the Academy, and naval figures. All visitors that are not affiliated with the military will need to walk onto the Academy at Gate 1.
Quiet Waters Park
Quiet Waters Park has a wide range of things to do within a beautiful setting between Harness Creek and South River. Covering 340 acres, it has extensive hiking trails and six miles of paved trails for bicycles, running, or walking, many of which lead to breathtaking scenic overlooks.
Dock Street Bar & Grill
Best crabcakes in Annapolis!
Pusser's Bar and Grille
Classic waterside restaurant specializing in Caribbean food & rum-based cocktails. Make sure to order a Painkiller #4 to get the full experience! You can also see "The Woodwind" sail boat from Wedding Crashers. Maybe if you're lucky, Christopher Walken will be manning the Woodwind.
Boatyard Bar & Grill
Vibrant nautical-themed spot for crab, oysters & other seafood, plus burgers, pizza & a full bar. Don't forget to order an orange crush which is Jen's favorite hometown drink!
Davis' Pub
Long-running neighborhood joint known for its crab cakes & creative pub fare. Our favorite thing to order is a crab pretzel with a nice cold refreshing Natty Boh (Baltimore Beer) to wash it down.
Washington DC
40-45 minute drive to Washington DC. Top places to see include the White House, Washington Monument, US Capitol, Lincoln Memorial, Thomas Jefferson Memorial, Vietnam Veterans Memorial, WWII Memorial, MLK Memorial, Fords Theater, Air and Space Museum, Natural History Museum, and American History Museum. If you need a place to kick back and relax, the Old Ebbit Grill is an iconic tavern to quench your thirst and appetites.
