General summary: Motored 12 miles East to the opening of Onancock Creek and then another 6 miles following a channel to the town of Onancock. The lush green forests and well maintained colonial style houses with blooming azaleas and dogwood trees greeted us as we wound along the river to our marina. One of the best maintained marinas we’ve been to. And free laundry! We did another self-guided walking tour and had delicious crab cakes at Mallards on the Warf, but unfortunately did not get serenaded by locally famous Johnny Mo, the singing chef.
