Experience rich history, pristine coastlines, and endless creativity 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 Accomack County and includes private properties just far enough off the beaten path to transport visitors a world away. Enjoy beautiful gardens and historic farms, and learn about coastal marine science. Of the total 1,310 square miles that make up this county, there is nearly twice as much water as there is land.
