Experience rich history and pristine coastlines on the Eastern Shore. Plan a day on Virginia’s portion of the Delmarva peninsula and view the sunrise on the Atlantic Ocean and the sunset over the Chesapeake Bay. This tour takes place in Northampton County, where Historic Court Green is one of the most intact county administrative spaces in Virginia. It boasts the earliest continuous court records in the United States. Enjoy beautiful gardens and historic farms just far enough off the beaten path to transport visitors a world away. Of the total 211 square miles that make up this county, there is nearly twice as much water as there is land.
