We invite groups to deepen their connection to the waterways through our eco-conscious initiatives including the Boardwalk, our Eastern Oyster Reef, and Living Shoreline. Groups can learn about the delicate flora and fauna through hands on experiences with our resident River Ecologist. After an experience on the shore, head into land with a guided tour of our Mushroom Forest and Honeybee Apiary where the harvested goods are used in our Chesapeake Restaurant. The Tides Inn emphasizes the concept of ‘tide to table’, with some added Southern flare for the freshest, most sustainable cuisine. The Chesapeake Restaurant offers a refined dining experience for breakfast, lunch & dinner while the oyster bar on the beach, Fish Hawk, provides a casual and inventive atmosphere.
