Martinak State Park sits along Watts Creek and the Choptank River, the largest of the Eastern Shore tributaries of the Chesapeake Bay. The park supports a wide variety of plant and animal life. Hardwood and pine forests surround the park, which offers modern campsites and boating access. Martinak is a haven for bird watchers, who can stroll the 2-mile trail or paddle the waterways via canoe, kayak or stand-up paddleboard. Overnight accommodations include camping, camper cabins and a full-service rental cabin (Choptank Cottage). A boat launch and a pier allow easy accessibility to the waterways. Anglers will find excellent fishing, featuring bass, perch, sunfish and catfish. Enjoy several playgrounds, borrow a bicycle, visit the Nature Center or enjoy the view at the amphitheater while you're there!
