Review:

North Beach is often referred to as the "Jewel of the Chesapeake Bay," located approximately one hour south of Baltimore's city center. The beautiful shoreline city is a great alternative for visitors looking for lower-key day trips along the Chesapeake than are offered at popular sites such as Chesapeake Beach, offering a beautiful flower-filled boardwalk and family-friendly attractions such as the local history-focused Bayside History Museum. Visitors of all ages and ability levels can swim and sunbathe at the town's public beachfront area, which is open year-round from dusk to dawn.

Fishing is allowed on the beach's lower-level fishing deck with permit, with boat slips available for free visitor use at the beach's dock. A wide variety of public special events are hosted by the town throughout the year, including summer Movies on the Beach events and a New Year's Day Polar Plunge swim.
