Review:
Janes Island State Park is located on the Eastern Shore of Maryland on Chesapeake Bay, not far from Crisfield. The park has a mainland area with the conference center, pavilions, picnic areas, a large campground, and rental cabins. There is also a marina and a public boat ramp. Janes Island, also part of the park, covers 2,900 acres of mostly saltmarsh. It has more than 30 miles of well-marked water trails through the marshes, perfect for exploring in a kayak or a canoe. Peaceful and isolated, the island feels as if it’s miles from the civilization, unspoiled and tranquil.
It is heaven for water birds. The island has miles of almost deserted sandy beaches. Swimming is permitted only on the Tangier Sound side, where the beaches are accessible by boat only. There are no lifeguards on duty.
