Review:
Matapeake Park and Beach is located on Kent Island across the Chesapeake Bay Bridge from Annapolis, occupying grounds formerly used as the landing for the Chesapeake Bay Ferry System.
The county-owned park and beach are open to the public daily between dawn and dusk and serves as the northern terminus of the six-mile Kent Island South Trail, which provides walking and biking access throughout the island.
The former ferry house and landing have been restored into a clubhouse and fishing pier, which offer spectacular views of the nearby bridge and waters.
A public swimming beach allows dogs on leashes, and several trails provide access to nearby natural sites. Other amenities include a family picnic area and an outdoor amphitheater that hosts periodic concerts and public special events.
