Snug Harbor Marina - Skiff rentals. Boat license required.
*VA Boating and Registration Requirements - Due to the following regulation, many rental companies stopped renting boats. There may be one or two locations still offering rentals, see Snug Harbor (above) as a possibility. "All operators of PWCs (Personal Watercraft such as jet skis, Sea Doos, Wave Runners) and operators of Motorboats with a 10 hp or greater motor, will be required to have a boating safety education course completion card on board when operating a PWC or Motorboat."
CRABBING OR FISHING
If you want to do either and don’t have your own equipment, go to Captain Steve’s on Maddox and ask for Jimmy. If Jimmy isn’t there, his Dad, Tom or brother, Pete will most likely be there to help out. They have daily rod or trap rentals and any type of bait or tackle you might need.
BIKING & WALKING
We love to bike and walk around town. If you would like to rent bikes near the condo to take around town, I suggest Chincoteague Island Outfitters. If you would like to rent bikes to ride around the Nature Loop, I suggest The Bike Depot.
BikeTripper.net and NPS.gov have mapped out some of the more popular biking and hiking trails on Assateague. Many of the roads on both Assateague and Chincoteague are bike-friendly.
A kid-friendly route to town: Right out of Sea Tag parking lot. Left onto Wayne Road. Right onto Ridge Road. Go straight at the stop sign to head towards ice cream, mini-golf, and the beach. Turn left at the stop sign to head towards Main Street.
PLAYGROUND | TENNIS COURT | BASKETBALL COURT
Two minute walk from the condo.
Bring needed equipment from home to enjoy the amenities.
