A variety of recreational programs and facilities await you and your family at Naval Air Station Patuxent River, located just 55 miles south of Washington D.C. Situated at the confluence of the Patuxent River and Chesapeake Bay, this is an area rich in both American and Navy history and natural beauty. Part of the legacy of Southern Maryland may be found in the spacious, natural campsite areas aboard the installation. Hogs Point campsites are nestled in the woods between the Chesapeake Bay and Patuxent River, just a few walking steps from fishing and crabbing, and offer the best views for sunrises. Sites are tent-only and nonelectric. Water lovers will find that NAS Patuxent River stretches across approximately 12 miles of shoreline, offering places to launch kayaks, stand up paddle boards, motor and sail boats, spots for fishing and crabbing, and areas for beach lovers. Bicyclists will find a 10 mile paved loop within the installation as well as designated bike trails. MWR also has a golf course, outdoor pool, marina, theater, Community Recreation Office, auto hobby shop and fitness center. Nearby attractions include Historic St. Mary's City, the Patuxent River Air Museum, Historic Sotterley, St. Clement's Island, Point Lookout State Park, Solomon's Island, and Navy Recreation Center Solomons.
