Join us for the most exciting tour you can take: a tour to see newborn foals as they are being born in the spring months! Spring is one of the best times to look for ponies and whilst this tour encompasses and includes the normal tour, more time for exploring the far reaches of the island as well as staying longer with ponies that we do find! This tour is great for photographers and people who want to soak up the most magical part of Assateague!

We depart from the harbor
Depending on wind and pony scouting we may either head up chincoteague to the northern herd of Assateague or head to the southern herd to start out the trip
We find ponies, stay with a herd for somewhere around 10-15 minutes then move on to find the next
We look through the herds for any foals, new foals are reported and we watch for a period to make sure it is stable and doing as expected.
We travel as far as we can with the extra time allotted and see as many of the herds that are out and about at this time of year!
We sometimes travel up to 25 miles on this journey so it covers a lot of ground whilst still allowing time to view things at a leisurely pace.

Finding New Foals!
Seeing as many ponies as possible!
