Attractions
On Tilghman Island we suggest a sail with Captain Wade on the Rebecca T. Ruark, which you can book from our reservation page, or a Lighthouse Tour with Captain Mike Richards or a romantic sail with Captain Jeff Mathias on the Lady Patty. Tilghman Island Marina rents jet skis and pontoon boats, and the Phillips Wharf Environmental Center offers sunset cruises and eco tours. The Tilghman Island Waterman’s Museum and Nautical Book Store is open weekends, and Walter Bartman holds painting seminars on the island throughout the year with many of his students staying with us to take advantage of the spectacular views.
Off the island, the Chesapeake Bay Maritime Museum holds events such as the Classic Boat Show, Folk Festival, Boat Auction, Concourse d’Elegance Car Show, Small Craft Festival and OysterFest. Christmas in St. Michaels is one of many festivals along with the Log Canoe Races . The Oxford-Bellevue Ferry established in 1683 is a charming ride to quaint shops and restaurants across the Choptank, and nearby Easton hosts Pleine Air Easton and the Waterfowl Festival among many others.  |
