Central Maryland

"With Annapolis and Baltimore both right here, we can feel the energy and excitement everywhere we go!"
Anne Arundel, Baltimore, Carroll, Harford and Howard Counties.

Baltimore's Inner Harbor, the U.S. Naval Academy in Annapolis – they're just a few of the popular attractions in Central Maryland. In one day, you could see where Francis Scott Key wrote the National Anthem, visit the Babe Ruth Museum, have a terrific seafood lunch, then drive to Annapolis where you can stroll cobblestone streets and have a relaxing dinner near the City Dock.

Between the cultural allure of Baltimore and the historical charm of Annapolis – Maryland's capital – you'll have plenty of choices. Take in a ballgame at Camden Yards, attend a symphony performance, see live theater, or discover a fabulous neighborhood restaurant.

Just minutes from the city, you'll find Maryland Thoroughbred horse farms, old mills and wide expanses of rolling landscape. Toward the bay, you’ll come across waterside communities that are havens for boating and fishing. Throughout this region, you'll see why Central Maryland is a rich tapestry of attractions, culture and history woven through a magnificent and vibrant landscape.
