About St. Marys City

As Maryland's first colonial settlement, this deeply historic area covers the St. Marys River, Historic St. Mary’s City, and Piney Point. The coastal lifestyle here includes touring historic skipjacks and the relocated Hooper Strait Lighthouse landmark, walking the waterfront boardwalks, and enjoying local soft-shell crab dining. Because the St. Marys River is a tidal estuary, checking the tide chart is highly beneficial for history enthusiasts; a low tide frequently exposes ancient oyster middens and historic artifacts along the muddy riverbanks that have been buried since the 17th century.
