About The Port Of Baltimore
Baltimore's Inner Harbor forms the heart of a port city that has reinvented its working waterfront into a lively promenade of museums, restaurants, and historic vessels docked along cobblestone quays. Nearby, Fort McHenry commemorates the 1814 battle that inspired Francis Scott Key to write what became "The Star-Spangled Banner," while the National Aquarium anchors the harbor with its extensive collection of marine life.
The Inner Harbor sits within easy walking distance of the pier, making it simple to explore on foot before venturing farther into the city's rowhouse neighborhoods and maritime museums. Baltimore's proximity to Washington, D.C. also makes it a practical gateway for travelers wishing to extend their visit to the nation's capital and its monuments.
Pavlus Recommendations
How our planners would spend a day in Baltimore.
Board the USS Constellation
Climb aboard this restored 1854 Civil War-era sloop-of-war docked right in the Inner Harbor, a self-guided tour through cramped decks and gun batteries that takes about an hour.
Wander Fells Point
Stroll the brick-paved streets of Baltimore's oldest waterfront neighborhood, lined with 18th-century rowhouses, taverns, and shops; a short walk or water taxi ride from the harbor.
Day Trip to Washington, D.C.
Baltimore's proximity to the capital makes it worth the roughly 45-minute train or drive to see the National Mall's monuments and Smithsonian museums firsthand.
