Just north on the Bay Bridge on the Eastern Shore, hidden behind a completely boring office park, is Terrapin Nature Park, a 2 76-acre nature park. More than three miles of trails wind through wetlands, meadows, and woods, leading eventually to a natural beach and a wheelchairaccessible boardwalk. Beachcombing can yield sea glass and bits of colonial pottery. With a view of the bridge in the distance, it’s the perfect place to bid adieu to the day and watch the orange and purple sunset.
