Frequently asked questions

What are the major attractions in Sanford?

Don't leave without exploring Tangier Island and Bloxom Winery. If you have time, also check out Eastern Shore Railway Museum.
What are the best road trip destinations near Sanford?
With some great road trip options in the surrounding area, having your own car makes sense. Without one, it'd be much harder to enjoy everything that Chincoteague, 16 miles away, has to offer.

Locals are also likely to point you in the direction of Salisbury, 30 miles away. If you can only see one thing here, let it be Salisbury Zoo. (But we'd also highly recommend Centre at Salisbury and Coco's Funhouse.)
