CALVERT MARINE MUSEUM - Solomons
The jewel on the Patuxent River, the Calvert Marine Museum takes you on a journey through the prehistory, natural history, and maritime heritage of the Chesapeake Bay region. Immersive exhibits delve into the Miocene epoch 8 – 20 million years ago when giant Megalodon sharks roamed the warm sub-tropical ocean; a 13-tank aquarium introduces you to life under and around the waters of the bay; iconic work boats, lighthouses, and stories of the men and women who worked these waters through the years tell the human story.
