Assateague Beach

Assateague Beach is a unique place where wildlife meets sandy beaches. It is famous for its wild horses that roam freely along the coast and are the island's main attraction.

It's a nature lover's paradise - you can watch seabirds, ospreys and admire the delicate ecosystem of the coastal marshes.

Active tourists will appreciate the opportunities for hiking, biking, fishing, clamming and kayaking. For families, there is a Junior Ranger Program with educational activities about conservation.
