THE
UNDISCOVERED
WHAT TO DO IN 2016
VIRGINIA’S WILD COAST
With the longest stretch of
undeveloped barrier islands on
America’s East Coast, the Virginia
Eastern Shore draws kayakers,
hikers, boaters, fishermen, birders
and nature lovers of all stripes to
the area’s stunning wild beauty.
Two National Wildlife Refuges,
a National Seashore, and state
and local parks preserve over
78,000 acres of pristine lands and
hundreds of miles of coastline.
Hire a professional outfitter –
a licensed boat captain or expert
kayak ecotour guide — to boat or
kayak out to the barrier islands
for the day. Walk the wild beaches,
play in the surf and hunt for beach
treasures. You’re experiencing the
New World exactly as the first
Europeans to arrive here might
have done.
TEN GREAT
VIRGINIA
What’s the ideal way to explore hundreds of miles of
pristine coastline along the
Virginia Eastern Shore’s two
coastlines? From a kayak. Explore both the Chesapeake Bay
and the Atlantic Ocean wild
shores with experienced outfitters. Short trips, overnights
and multiple day excursions
are tailored to skill level and
interest. Unique trips include
the Kayak Winery Tour to Chatham Vineyards, a weekend at
a barrier island hunting lodge,
a trip to harvest wild clams and
oysters and family nature paddles. Stand up paddle boarding
is growing in popularity.
Virginia’s oyster industry is
the East Coast’s largest and
the Eastern Shore’s two coastlines produce three of seven
distinct Virginia oyster flavors.
Over seventy restaurants include raw bars, seafood shacks,
casual cafes and elegant bistros. Boat up to restaurants
in four waterside towns: Cape
Charles, Wachapreague, Onancock and Chincoteague. Tour
an aqua farm cultivating clams
and oysters, boat or kayak out
to wild oyster “rocks” and harvest your dinner, and visit local
cultural centers and museums
that tell the story of the waterman life. Buy fresh seafood
at local grocers and cook up a
feast at your vacation rental,
or load up a cooler to take it
home.
KAYAK TRIPS
OYSTER TRAIL
100 PLACES
TO SEE
Grab the Virginia’s Eastern
Shore Artisan Trail brochure
wherever you see the distinctive
sign, above, or download it at
www.artisanscenterofvirginia.org.
You’ll have a detailed roadmap to over 100 extraordinary cultural adventures.
Head off the main road
to studios, farms, wineries,
galleries, B&Bs, museums,
cultural stops, stages and
shops tucked away down
country lanes and in small
walkable towns.
GET OUT
ON THE WATER
You’ve got to get out on the water where life is really lived
here on Virginia’s Eastern Shore. Hire an outfitter – kayak, boat,
sailboat – and head out, and take in the wildlife, the silence,
harvest some wild oysters, crabs or clams, spot the famous
Chincoteague ponies, go fishing, see the wild coastlines and
venture out to the wild barrier islands or remote Tangier Island.
NAT GEO
TOP PICK FOR 2016 TRAVEL
National Geographic Traveler’s list of the world’s top 20 places
to visit in 2016 includes Tangier Island, a remote island in the
middle of the Chesapeake Bay. Reach Tangier by boat or small
plane. Settled in the 1600s, its residents have been isolated from
the rest of the world for four centuries. You’ll find ancient graves,
a tiny museum, charming B&Bs, casual restaurants and one of the
East Coast’s best beaches. The Onancock to Tangier ferry operates
in the warmer months.
HISTORY
VIRGINIA’S EASTERN SHORE
Settled in the 1600’s, the Virginia Eastern Shore has evolved in
relative isolation from modern America. Until 1964, when the 23mile Chesapeake Bay Bridge-Tunnel was built, it was a long ferry
ride to mainland Virginia, and an inconvenient car, rail or boat trip
to points north. Today, much of the region, untouched by big
commercial development, looks like it did when Captain John
Smith arrived in 1607.
Interested in building rockets or robots or seeing a working
NASA base? Then the Virginia Space Flight Academy is the go-to place for
summer camp. For young people, ages 11-16, there are hands-on activities,
excitement and fun. Meet new friends, be part of a team, learn what space
engineers need to know and enjoy Virginia’s beautiful Eastern Shore.

GETAWAYS
he Eastern Shore of Virginia is a history buff’s dream, settled in the
early 1600s and relatively undisturbed since due to its centuries of
isolation. It’s also a culinary mecca, where fresh caught seafood meets
southern comfort food, meets avante guard food trends. Plus, you can
gaze across open water while you eat. If you’re an avid kayaker, hiker,
fisherman, hunter, boater, sailor, birder or just like the adrenaline high
of a good hanglide, this is the place. If you love art, there are dozens of
studios and galleries up and down the shore. Antique stores, charming
shops and upscale markets are filled with treasures you can take home.

aily life hums briskly as a summer day dawns on
Chincoteague Island. Scooters zip along Maddox
Boulevard and bike riders pedal toward Assateague
Island. By afternoon, lines form at the ice cream parlors. In late
July, thousands flock to the world-famous Pony Swim and Penning,
celebrating its 91st year in 2016.
Over at Tom’s Cove they’re stacking bushels of blue crabs,
bagging clams, culling oysters, all of this one step removed
from the tables of town restaurants where you can slurp down
“Chincoteague Salt” oysters or bite into a crispy soft shell crab.

of Virginia.
A country drive down Atlantic and Metompkin roads passes
through hamlets like Modest Town and Kegotank, small clusters
of homes with old churches and historic cemeteries. This winding
back road is fast becoming a bicycling favorite.
A few miles north near the Maryland border find the little fishing
village of Greenbackville, with the Crusty Crab Seafood Shack and
the Bay Watch Inn. Nearby Captain’s Cove has a 9-hole golf course,
marina and restaurant on Chincoteague Bay.
Across Route 13, bayside country roads lead to old landings
once buzzing with schooners and steamboats. Today they’re ideal
for launching a skiff or kayak for paddling or fishing for flounder
or rockfish. In the island village of Saxis you can nod hello to the
watermen at work at the wharf and visit Saxis Island Museum,
which chronicles their hardworking way of life.
In the town of Parksley, a collection of rail cars and engines
harkens back half a century to when railroad eclipsed the ships and
sent Shore-grown vegetables and fruit nationwide.
A day of playing in salty sea spray and crashing waves, exploring
small towns and tasty lunch counters, inevitably ends at water’s
edge. Gulls and terns cry out and swoop over acres of salt marsh,
a scene that is both a beautiful and essential piece of the
Shore experience.

Donna Mason,
Chincoteague Island
“The Eastern Shore, and Chincoteague in particular,
are the quiet alternative to the other beach resorts
like Virginia Beach, Ocean City and OBX. We’ve got
everything they’ve got except a boardwalk and we’ve
got it in a nicer, quieter way. It’s a lot safer. It’s a good
family place. It’s a good place to live and a good place
to play. We’re still like everything else used to be.
I hear that all the time.”

T
he Chesapeake Bay BridgeTunnel (CBBT) is an
engineering marvel built in
the mid-1960s to link mainland
Virginia with the Eastern Shore,
which, at the time, was a very
long ferry ride.
The 20-mile CBBT is the
world’s largest bridge-tunnel
complex. It includes two onemile-long tunnels, three bridges,
two miles of causeway and four

MIDDLE SHORE
A
s a Chesapeake Bay deadrise slowly
motors away from Onancock
wharf bound for Tangier Island,
a charter fishing boat clears the inlet out
of Wachapreague, headed to blue Atlantic
waters. Out in the marsh, watermen deftly
steer skiffs loaded with oysters and clams
along winding creeks back toward the dock.
Daily life, like boats and tides, ebbs and
flows in the Middle Shore’s vintage towns
and countryside escapes.
On small town streets a storekeeper
hangs the “Open” sign, an artist’s easel is
set up for plein air painting, and a breeze
picks up enticing smells from the corner
café. The county seat of Accomac hums with
courthouse activity amid the finest examples
of 18th century architecture.
As the landscape between bay and ocean
narrows, the choices to stay, eat and play
grow rich and varied, from quaint waterfront
cottages to modern hotels in Exmore.
Renovated inns and art galleries lend
a modern charm to Onancock, a walkable
wharf town dating to 1680. From here,
you can take the ferry to the waterman’s
community of Tangier Island or explore the
waters of Onancock Creek by kayak.
Farther south in Wachapreague, the
day’s catch is weighed and cleaned dockside
while the proud anglers soak in spacious
views from the deck of The Island House
Restaurant.
On country roads the curious traveler finds
quirky surprises: The Seaside Grill in Willis
Wharf, Teresa’s Quilts in Exmore, Asian
pears and other seasonal fruit at Mason
Beach Fruit Farm near Harborton.
Wherever you may wander, evening finds
you at a pub, café or fine restaurant that
exudes warmth and atmosphere. Dining
ranges from southern comfort food to
sophisticated culinary adventures using the
fruits of farm and sea.
FUN FACT
Housed in an original, shiny metal railroad
car, the Exmore Diner was retro before
retro was in vogue. Friendly, local faces
serve up comfort food for breakfast,
lunch and dinner.

steeped in history charts its founding back to 1680. Its centuries-old
homes evoke an era of prosperity on the shore, particularly Ker Place,
a historic house turned museum. Today, artist studios, restaurants
and inns capture the vitality of the current day. Meet artists in their
studios and local farmers at the Onancock Market on Saturday
mornings. Walk to dinner, a movie, or a live show at the playhouse.
Choose from four inns and a historic hotel. Dining ranges from an
Irish pub to sophisticated cafés to a dockside eatery where the chef
plays guitar.
Off 13: Wachapreague
Venture off the highway just four miles to Wachapreague, “The
Little City by the Sea.” Dine on local seafood at the Island House,
or catch your own on a charter fishing or clam-digging trip. Ride the
Wachapreague Inn’s boat taxi to a relaxing day on a sandbar.
Catch the Ferry
Operating spring through fall, the Tangier Ferry is a Chesapeake
Bay workboat outfitted to take visitors 12 miles out to Tangier Island
in the middle of the Chesapeake Bay. Spend the day walking the
island’s narrow lanes, take a golf cart tour (there are no cars here),
and sample the softshell crabs this island is best known for. You’ll
no doubt get an earful of the local Tangier dialect, related to the
Elizabethan English spoken by the island’s first settlers.

Mark Crockett, Tangier Island
“I love everything about Tangier — it’s a way of
life. It’s a unique place to live and there’s no other
place like it in the world. I wouldn’t trade it for
anywhere in the world. I love living there. When
I was raising my kids you could just let them go,
you can’t do that everywhere. My grandkids are
coming up now and they can just go out and play.
It’s really nice.”

LOWER SHORE
T
he Eastern Shore begins — and ends — at the famed
Chesapeake Bay Bridge-Tunnel at the southern tip where
drivers enjoy 20 plus miles of open water. Here, Chesapeake
Bay and Atlantic waters meet, waves from both washing
upon each other. Fishermen, vacationers, beachcombers and
birdwatchers mingle. All are embraced by water.
Those who travel a distance deserve a reward, and the Lower
Shore delivers. Long walks on wild beaches are matched by
equestrian rides through the pine forests, and every night brings
the bounty of the sea to the table.
FUN FACT
Built in 1964 to connect the Eastern Shore to Hampton Roads, the
20-mile Chesapeake Bay Bridge-Tunnel is one of the world’s engineering
marvels. Stop on the southernmost of the four islands to watch birds,
battleships and container barges from the fishing pier and dine at the
Chesapeake Grill in one of the most original spots in the world, the
middle of the Chesapeake Bay.
Cape Charles is the perfect
launch point for shopping,
beaches, golf and outdoor
adventures. You might spot an
enormous mega–yacht docked at
the Cape Charles Yacht Center.
The nearby Bay Creek Resort
is home to Jack Nicklaus and
Arnold Palmer signature golf
courses right on the Chesapeake
Bay, vacation rentals, a private
beach and a restaurant.
For a completely different
experience, park the camper at
Cherrystone Family Camping
Resort and, just down the road,
pick up some of the famed
Cherrystone littlenecks for a roast
over the campfire.
The lights stay on 24 hours
at the fishing pier at Kiptopeke
State Park, and down the beach
a stretch, boats anchor offshore
from the Sunset Grille with the
stunning Chesapeake Bay BridgeTunnel as a backdrop.
Up the road, Chatham
Vineyard’s French vinifera grapes
are turned into the Merlots,
Chardonnays, Cabernets and
blends that have earned the
winery medals and accolades
nationwide.
Launch your kayak on a guided
tour to the winery and, later in
the evening, sip their Church
Creek Steel Chardonnay at sunset
at a restaurant overlooking the
Chesapeake Bay.

Myrtis Ames, Capeville
“When people ask me about the Eastern Shore I
tell them that it’s a quiet place — if you’re looking for the city life it’s not here. You’ll find love,
you’ll find trust, honesty, you’ll find giving, you’ll
find peace, and you’ll find joy and contentment. A
lot of folks say this is God’s country.
