Inner Harbor

Baltimore's city living room. A harborside promenade links the aquarium, historic ships, and science center, and you can ride a water taxi.

Inner Harbor is a waterfront district converted from old piers beginning in the 1970s, and it is regarded as a model of American urban renewal. The Harborwalk stretches several kilometers, linking the National Aquarium, historic vessels such as the USS Constellation, the Maryland Science Center, and Federal Hill. You can rent swan pedal boats in the harbor, or take a water taxi to Fells Point and Fort McHenry. The waterfront is open all day with free admission. At night, lights reflect on the harbor, and events are common on summer weekends.
