We know the best spots on the Assateague coastline for pony viewing, and we take you there for a unique experience. Wildlife sightings along the way may include bald eagles, shorebirds, and dolphins.​In recent years, wildlife management officials have built miles of fencing along the roadways on Assateague to keep the ponies off the roadway and protect them from getting hit by vehicles.
