This award-winning 276-acre nature park features a 3.25-mile oyster chaff walking trail, which meanders through wildflower meadows, wetlands, tidal ponds, woodlands and sandy beaches. The trail provides a unique vantage point for viewing an incredible variety of waterfowl, wildlife and plant species. A gazebo and wheelchair-accessible boardwalk, located along the beach afford a spectacular view of the Chesapeake Bay Bridge, and park benches located along the trail provides a brief respite for the weary. The trail, which wanders over several ridges, across marshlands and through woodlands, features two observation blinds overlooking the tidal ponds. The trail connects to the County’s Cross Island Trail system. Nearby free parking for the Cross Island Trail system is available at Old Love Point Park. Portable toilets are available year round. Hours: Sunrise to Sunset

There's a nice little beach, picnic area, and biking trails. The parking is limited, and the beach area is very small. FYI, cooler isn't allowed.

Bottom Line: Bugs, bugs, more bugs and a tidal marsh and beach. They should rename this park either Bug Nature Park or Terrapin Bug Park. My husband and I went for an after dinner walk and...
