St Marys Beach, located between Broomes Island Road and the Patuxent River shoreline, is a waterfront and residential Broomes Island neighborhood with broad tidal views and a working-marina backdrop. The neighborhood’s character concentrates around the Broomes Island Road approach to the island, where crab shacks, bait-and-tackle stops, and boat trailers set a salt-air rhythm. Low-slung cottages and raised beach houses line quiet lanes, with porches angled toward the water and marsh. Days track the tides, from kayaks slipping into creeks to skiffs heading for the river. Community touchstones include Broomes Island Marina, Capt Pat’s Seafood, and the Broomes Island General Store.
