Baltimore’s focus for visitors is the revitalized, pedestrian-friendly Inner Harbor, with its waterfront promenade and surrounding central business district.
On the water is Baltimore’s gleaming pyramid-shaped National Aquarium, one of the city’s most popular attractions.
Nearby Harborplace, a former power plant on the harbor’s north-west corner, is the focus of the pedestrian promenade, lined with restaurants and shops.
To get a sense of Baltimore’s centuries of seafaring history, visit the Maritime Museum on the harbor for a cruise on a historic submarine, sloop or coast guard cutter.

Doing what: Baltimore Dinner Cruise with Buffet
I took my wife on this cruise for our 15th wedding anniversary. We both loved the trip. The food was great and the views were even better. Nice to watch the sun set from the top deck.

Doing what: Baltimore Dinner Cruise with Buffet
The ship was nice however when we took the cruise it rained so we were limited to inside. The food was good. The music was not my style as it was dance music, I expect live music however it was staff singing karaoke. I felt the price was high for what this cruise entailed.
Practical Info
The Inner Harbor area stretches into the waterfront’s nearby streets, bounded by President, Lombard, Greene and Camden Streets.
Water taxis are the best way to get around the city-center Inner Harbor, crossing the water to Little Italy, Fells Point and Canton.
