St. Paul's by-the-sea Protestant Episcopal Church is a Carpenter Gothic parish church in Ocean City, Maryland, notable for its distinctive wooden architectural style. The congregation began holding Episcopal services in 1878 at Congress Hall before a mission church was constructed nearby in 1881. In 1898, donor John Waggaman of Washington D.C. gave two lots to the parish at Baltimore Avenue and Third Street. The cornerstone for the present church was laid on June 6, 1900, with the first service held in 1901. The parish was elevated to full parochial status in 1924. The church was listed on the National Register of Historic Places in 2008, recognizing its historical and architectural significance.
