I’ve chased thrills across Maryland, and if you’re ready for a day packed with rides, laughter, and maybe a few screams, these amusement parks in Maryland are just the ticket. Whether I’m hitting the coasters or floating down a lazy river, I always walk away with big smiles and great memories—and you will too.

Highlights:

  • I took a nostalgic ride through Trimper Rides & Amusement Park in Ocean City—you’ll love the classic charm and oceanfront energy.
  • On a hot day, I cooled off at Six Flags America in Bowie with water slides, lazy rivers, and all the high-speed rides you could ask for. You’ll find fun for everyone here.
  • I stopped by Jolly Roger Amusement Park for that retro boardwalk feel—it’s full of family-friendly rides. You’ll love the vibe by the beach.
  • At Adventure Park USA in Monrovia, I raced go-karts and played mini-golf with the kids. You’ll find plenty of thrills without the long lines.
  • I wrapped up one summer weekend at Chesapeake Beach Water Park, where we splashed, laughed, and lounged. You’ll appreciate the mix of interactive features and relaxing spots for the whole family.
