Oyster Tour and Birdwatching Too

    A lot of our guests here at the Inn are interested in getting out on the water in some way. While canoeing, kayaking and stand-up paddle boarding are great, sometimes guests like to be driven around and shown the sites by experts who know the waterways and histories like no other. Well now there’s a new and fascinating take on that theme; Chapel Creek Oyster Company.



     Chapel Creek Oyster Company is a family run oyster farm located just off the Chesapeake Bay on the scenic  Piankatank River. Trey at Chapel Creek offers eco-tours  that involve bird watching as well as seeing the oyster farm and learning how this vital species is keeping our beloved bay clean. These trips generally last 2 hours and cost $140 (up to 4 participants can take the tour for that same price).

    
For more information you can check out their website at shuckem.com. To contact them you can email Trey at trey@shuckem.com or call them at 804-815-6132. They will customize their tours to do more birdwatching and they also offer sunset cruises as well as stand-up paddle tours. Just call them for rates and information.
