Fresh Blue Crabs in Eastern Shore

Maryland's Eastern Shore is crab country in its purest form. From Kent Island at the top to Crisfield at the tip, this peninsula is shaped by water — the Choptank River, Tred Avon, Wicomico, and a dozen tidal creeks that have been crabbed for centuries. The towns are small, the seafood is fresh, and the watermen here are among the last of a dying tradition. If you want crabs as close to the source as possible, the Eastern Shore delivers.
