About Chincoteague

The Assateague Island National Seashore is an undeveloped National Park with an excellent beach and great Federally administered parking and facilities. CNN is featuring Assateague as a Hidden Treasure. Because parking is limited and access controlled, the Assateague beach is never overcrowded. (Be sure to go early on summer weekends to get your best spot.)

Located on the East Cost migratory bird flyway, the Chincoteague National Wildlife Refuge offers year-round opportunities for birders and nature lovers, with bike and walking trails. Recently, American Bald Eagles have begun nesting in the Refuge. Snow Geese, Canada Geese, and many varieties of wild ducks winter here. You can see many of them from our deck.

Fishing is excellent, from Flounder in the back bays to Blues in the surf. Local captains run inexpensive charters and rental boats and tackle are available. Crabbing from our private pier on Eel Creek is fun for the whole family--we even provide the crabbling gear.

And of course, there are the legendary Chincoteague wild ponies. Tradition has it they are descended from ponies shipwrecked off Assateague Island in the 17th Century. Whether this is true, the ponies roam free on Assateague and in the Wildlife Refuge, under the care of the Chincoteague Volunteer Firemen. Each July, on Pony Penning Day, the herd is rounded up by the "Gumboot Cowboys" of the Fire Company and swum across the narrow channel to Chincoteague during the annual Carnival. Who knows, you may buy one at the auction and take it home!
