PRINCE FREDERICK, Md. — Calvert County Government is now accepting photo submissions for its upcoming 2026–2027 Visitor Guide, offering local photographers a chance to showcase the region’s scenic beauty, vibrant attractions, and hidden gems to a wide audience of tourists and residents alike.
The guide serves as a key promotional tool for the county, highlighting popular destinations including Breezy Point Beach & Campground, Annmarie Sculpture Garden & Arts Center, Calvert Marine Museum, and Jefferson Patterson Park & Museum, along with attractions on the Calvert County Wine & Ale Trail.
The publication includes contact details and information on local restaurants, museums, charter boats, marinas, boat ramps, golf courses, antique shops, wedding venues, lodging, and hiking trails, along with a calendar of major events happening year-round.
“Whether you come to comb for shark teeth or sail the scenic Chesapeake Bay, discover amazing adventures and unspoiled beauty in Southern Maryland’s Calvert County!” the site says.
