Tangier Island Cruises


Cruise to Tangier Island from Reedville, VA, aboard the Chesapeake Breeze. The Breeze leaves from Buzzard’s Point Marina for Tangier Island at 10 a.m. and returns to Reedville at 4:15 p.m. Enjoy a wonderful day out on the Chesapeake Bay and Tangier Island.

On the way to the island, the ship often passes fishing boats working their nets or large ocean freighters traveling between Baltimore and Norfolk or points beyond. You can also see Tangier Island watermen making their living on the bay.

After a relaxing one-and-a-half-hour narrated cruise, the ship docks at Tangier Island, where you are met by a friendly guide. During your two-and-a-half-hour visit, you may wish to eat at one of the restaurants on the Island or make use of some of the picnic areas.

Spend some time walking around this quaint island or take a tour on a mini-bus. Either way, you are sure to remember your trip to Tangier Island for a long time to come.
