The Calvert Cliff State Park, and the nearby nuclear power plant tour.
Fossil hunting on the beach.

The Pautuxent (sp), especially Jug Bay and the surrounding park.  Especially
good if you enjoy wetland wildlife walks.  They will rent canoes, too.

There is a small State Park that contains the northmost stand of Bald Cyprus,
the name escapes me.  Very nice walk.

St. Mary's county, including St. Mary's City, with the colonial-era stuff.
I believe the reproduction of the Dove is still there. (A sailing vessel).

Point Lookout State Park.  Home of decent camping, and swimming (until the
jellyfish kick in) and some historic stuff about Point Lookout, most notably
the civil-war era prison camp that was the death of some incredible number
of confederates, like 20 thousand or so.  There is also a public fishing 
pier off the point.

Southern Maryland is extremely beautiful, and has a pace of its own.  You
should allow plenty of time for driving, as watching the scenery is half the
fun.  I did a 180 mile bike tour of the area a few years back.
