NAS PAX (Naval Air Station at the Patuxent River) is located next to a small southern Maryland town that’s continually growing. There’s countless parks, trails + beaches to explore + tons of breweries, wineries + dockside restaurants to indulge in! Big cities like D.C.+ Baltimore are only an hour(ish) car ride away + are constantly having events throughout the year. You’ll feel right at home in SoMD in no time!
Things to know about NAS/PAX Air Station Base
Moving to Southern Maryland has helped me get back in touch with the outdoors, there’s countless state parks + trails to enjoy here! We’ve also been pleasantly surprised with the number of vineyards, wineries + breweries that are nearby + produce local drinks with the friendliest owners. Oh+ the seafood is phenomenal, you don’t live in Maryland + not fall in love with fresh blue crab!!
