Review:
Located near Lusby, Maryland, on the end of the Calvert Peninsula in Chesapeake Bay, Calvert Cliffs State Park is named for the famous massive cliffs that dominate this 30-mile-long portion of the Chesapeake shoreline. The entire area is known for the fossils from 600 species from the Miocene sub-epoch. This popular public recreation area is nicely forested and has a small pond and some verdant wetland areas.
There are 13 miles of hiking trails and the lovely sandy beach is located at the end of a 1.8-mile-long trail. Besides being popular with fossil hunters, the area is also frequented by birdwatchers, who can enjoy spotting more than 160 species of birds.
