Things to Do

Around here, things are pretty simple.
The following activities could keep you busy for a lifetime.

Kayaking the Chesapeake Bay
Kayak Tour – New Point Comfort Lighthouse Observation Deck

#1. Enjoy the Chesapeake Bay

Get out on the water for some fun in the sun. There’s so many ways to embrace the waterfront here in Mathews that we really don’t know where to begin. You can enjoy a quiet get-away for two or bring family and friends for an unforgettable natural experience. Either way, if you visit Mathews, you must experience our creeks, rivers and bays. It’s why we’re here.

And we’re not just talking galleries & art studios… our entire county is a work of art. That’s why so many have come for a visit and never left. There’s something about the landscape and the people here that at first draws you in, and then brings out your best.
