Eastern Shore hospitality is epitomized in Cambridge, a community that hugs the shores of the Choptank River. Its centerpiece is historic High Street, lined by stately 18th and 19th century homes. Anglers can drop a line at Long Warf, Great Marsh and the Choptank fishing piers, or simply relax and watch the endless parade of sailboats and pleasure boats. From its historic bed-and-breakfast inns and brick streets to the first-rate golf course of the local country club, Cambridge strikes a pleasing balance between historic ambiance, modern amenities and the shoreline’s natural serenity. Cambridge is home of the renowned Sailwinds Park, a $30 million revitalization project that includes a public beach, Playspace for the younger set, boardwalk and Visitor’s Center, and a multitude of cultural exhibits that focus on the area’s water-based heritage. Each July, visitors flock to Cambridge to watch the Sail Regatta on the Choptank River, an event that features a variety of single-design sailboats.
