Cruises -- While most visitors head for the beach on Assateague, don't overlook the broad bays and creeks that surround Chincoteague. A good way to get out on them is with Captain Barry's Back Bay Cruises (tel. 757/336-6508; www.captainbarry.bigstep.com), which depart Landmark Plaza on Main Street. Barry Frishman moved from upstate New York to Chincoteague and set about learning everything he could about the water and what's in it. Now he shares his knowledge by taking guests out on his pontoon boat for 1 1/2-hour early-morning bird-watching expeditions ($20 per person); 4-hour morning or afternoon "Back Bay expeditions" in search of crabs, fish, shells, and clams ($40 per person); champagne sunset cruises ($30); moonlight excursions ($10); and just plain old "Fun Cruises" in spring and fall ($20).Call for Barry's schedule and reservations, which are required.
