What the Locals Say
“The Chesapeake culture is alive and well in Talbot County,” says Cassandra Vanhooser, director of economic development and tourism. After years of traveling the South as a writer for Southern Living, Vanhooser found a spot on the map she just couldn’t leave. “We can trace our roots back to the 1600s, but our coastal towns and villages are not stuck in yesteryear,” she explains. “They are vibrant, thriving communities that combine modern amenities with Old World charm. Talbot County also draws an eclectic mix of individualists, from captains of industry to watermen (and women) who still make their living fishing for blue crabs, oysters, and rockfish.”

Things to Do Boating, paddling, fishing, hunting, golfing, swimming, biking, hiking, birding - outdoor activity abounds in St. Michaels. You’ll find plenty of shops and galleries in town, as well as St. Michaels Winery and Lyon Distilling Co. Stop by the Chesapeake Bay Maritime Museum, an 18-acre waterfront museum showcasing the Chesapeake and its people. In 2016, the museum began restoration of the 1889 Edna E. Lockwood, last remaining log-bottom bugeye under sail. They're hoping to relaunch the boat for the annual Oyster-Fest in 2018
