Very fun place, however, it gets busy quickly. We got there around 10:00, several boats were already there. Left around three, and between six people, we had found around 70 sharks teeth, as well as some other fossils. Highly recommend going here, but you'll need a boat to get out to the island.

Where is the gift shop to purchase a pass? Thought I saw some one say cost is about $100. For a year? That's a lot for just a day trip. Are mosquitos or flys a problem?

No gift shop. You have to get in touch with the owners. And no there is usually no mosquitos but nats come out in the evenings sometimes Usually there is a nice breeze that keeps them away. Beautiful place to go for relaxation. If you want to speak to an owner I can give your number for them to call you about pricing.

I've not heard of being able to buy a permit online. You should just go and wait for the care keeper to walk by in his boots and hand you an application!

how much to go

Couple of times over the summer... Would go more, but it takes a boat to get there and it's my friend's boat...

Does anyone know the VA laws on public/private property? In Maryland it is public property up to the high tide line.
