About the event

Experience on the Half Shell
Ahoy, mates! Step aboard the historic Stanley Norman, our 1902 Skipjack, and set sail for an unforgettable voyage on the Miles River, just as they did over a century ago! This seasonal experience is available in October and November and provides the rare chance to dredge oysters just like the watermen of the 1900s.

After your ‘catch and release’ enjoy expertly prepared oysters paired with a selection of refreshing beverages as you sail back to port.

Whether you're docking with us for the day or staying as a guest, this limited time adventure is an authentic , hands-on journey that connects you to the historic traditions of the Chesapeake Bay.
