How to Find a Quiet Beach in Maryland

Sometimes beach vacations are all about action, but you may want to find a quiet beach-a chance to get away from it all and contemplate the surf. Here's how to find a quiet beach in Maryland.

Instructions

1. Looking for an area where all of the beaches offer quiet and seclusion? Head to Chesapeake Beach in Calvert County.

2. Looking for a unique quiet beach experience complete with wild ponies? Plan a trip to the Asseteague Island National Seashore.

3. If you are looking for a quiet beach in Maryland that is close enough for a day trip from the Washington, D.C. area, consider visiting the Sandy Point State Park on Chesapeake Bay.

Tips & Warnings

• Beaches are busiest in the middle of the day. If you are looking for peace and quiet (even on the busiest beaches in places like Ocean City), consider going to the beach early in the morning or later in the evening.

• Many Maryland beach vacation rental locations are located near semi-private, quiet beaches.

• Some beach areas in Maryland have been damaged by hurricanes and therefore have limited usability.
