Trip Overview
Paddle with the ponies and camp in the pines on a fully-outfitted 3-day expedition including quality sea kayaks, guide service and meals. Experience a wild barrier island on a Burnham Guides expedition into the backcountry of Assateague National Seashore. Less than three hours from D.C. on Maryland's Atlantic coast, this national treasure is famous for its wild horses, birdlife and white sand beaches. The 37-mile-long barrier island also offers paddling through bayside marshes, hiking in maritime forests, bird and pony-watching, biking, and remote backcountry camping. From the frontcountry basecamp the night before launch, you’ll paddle along bayside marshes to remote backcountry campsites (there are toilets and picnic tables). A short walk from camp leads through maritime forest and dunes to the wild Atlantic ocean beach.
