Pemberton Historical Park (Salisbury) is a 225 acre public facility which encompasses over two centuries of growth and development of the land we know as Wicomico. It is located on the western bank of the Wicomico River and is the site where Isaac Handy arrived and built his home and working plantation. Pemberton Historical Park offers a 4.5 mile trail providing public access to 5 distinct ecosystems. Interpretive nature programs are offered for groups of all ages and interests.

There are guided walks available at the state parks where a naturalist will point out natural habitat and ecology. Wildlife management areas are open to the public, but are rarely used. There are also wonderful nature trails in many small towns, such as Cypress Park in Pocomoke City where there is a unique interpretive wooden boardwalk that traverses a bald cypress swamp.

Snow Hill has several parks bordering the silent Pocomoke River.
