TYASKIN PARK
Tyaskin Park is one of those hidden treasures in Wicomico County that will quickly become a favorite spot to anyone who discovers it. The park is about 15 miles from Salisbury, tucked away at the end of Tyaskin Road on the Nanticoke River. A popular spot for local residents, the park has a picnic pavilion at the water’s edge, a small beach area which provides water access, and a large pier perfect for fishing or crabbing. Visitors are able to enjoy the park today thanks to the generosity of Tyaskin residents Mattie Culver and Earnest Larmore. The couple gave the property to the county in 1942, wishing to share the beauty and tranquility of their land with others.
