Fossil hunters will enjoy Flag Ponds, a park with two ponds, observation platforms, a fishing pier, and a variety of trails that will take you on either a short hike to the shores of the Chesapeake Bay or on a longer journey through the woods.
The naturalists at Flag Ponds offer a variety of weekend programs for kids and families, including a Pirate Scavenger Hunt and bird watching.
