You'll truly enjoy the walks, the beaches and the wildlife at this refuge. The end of October and beginning of November brings the snow geese - and you'll see a sight you've never seen before when you see them upon Swans Cove and Snow Goose Pool. The weather is pleasant enough to really enjoy all that the parks have to... more
We took the Chincoteague Natural History Association 2 hour tour with our older parents and we loved it. You ride a small air conditioned bus through the reserve to places that regular visitors cannot access or are not accessible by car. We saw a lot of wildlife including the wild ponies. In fact, the ponies were about 2 feet from... more
definitely try a few of the hikes. (cover yourself with avon's "skin so soft" mosquito repellent wipes first.) the trails are very pretty and secluded (and are easy). the beach is neat. horses are most often found (at least in my limited experience) a bit after the park entrance... on the straight stretch... looking off to your right... just before... more
My family went very far out of our way to see the famous wild horses. Apparently this is herculean feat. All we saw were a handful of corraled horses. A major bust and dissapointment to our kids. Oh, and days after going on one of the trails, we're still scratching the bug bites and we used bug spray with deet,... more

I've seen big skeeters in Texas, but never in swarms like this and never so ferocious. I had... more
I can't begin to put into words how amazing the CNWRefuge is!! We went in the off-season (mid-March) and had a wonderful time birding. We saw a ton of Bald Eagles, shore birds, and migrating warblers. Also saw some good wildlife: otter eating huge fish for breakfast, muskrat, snapper and painted turtles, fox squirrels, and yes the ponies. The ponies... more
One of the prettiest beaches on the east coast,very nice and clean and the crowds aren't to bad. more
Chincoteague/Assateague Island is a special place. There is really no where else like it on the Eastern Shore. The Chincoteague National Wildlife Refuge is actually on Assateague Island in Virginia. You need to travel across Chincoteague (a great place to stay) to get there. Once on the refuge, you will find a beautiful natural setting. If you have ever wanted... more
