Overview
Chesapeake Windsail Tours, a division of Chesapeake Windsail Cruises, is offering a wonderful way to enjoy Chesapeake Beach, with a stroll back into time down the old railway trail that once brought visitors from Washington DC, Baltimore and other destinations to the beaches.

Jana lead an amazing tour and provided a fascinating historical narrative along the way. We spotted several species of birds including a Blue Heron and an Osprey. A cute turtle crossed the walking path in front of us. The trail is well marked along the way, easy to walk alternating between elevated wood walkways and pavers paths underneath the shaded trees. Despite the warm afternoon (mid 80’s) it was a lovely trek!
