🎉🇺🇸 Virginia Turns 250… and We’re Celebrating All Year Long! 🇺🇸🎉

In honor of the 250th birthday of Virginia, Seaside Vacations is excited to celebrate throughout the year!

From highlighting local history and traditions to sharing stories that make our island so special, we’ll be taking time to celebrate this incredible milestone and the many ways Chincoteague has helped shape Virginia’s story over the past 250 years.

Stay tuned as we honor the beauty, heritage, and community that make this state—and our island—such a special place to visit and call home 💙

There’s so much to celebrate, and we can’t wait to share it with you!

Pictured is Heaven a ‘24 buyback who got caught in a fence. She has been slowly but surely recuperating but she is certainly going to be a big “pony” she is standing next to a 16 hand horse so as a yearling she surely is going to be one of the largest in the herd. The vets are optimistic that she should be able to return in the fall and stay with the ‘25 buybacks and be released with them in the spring of 2026.

We did it, y’all! 🎬 Tides of Tradition: The Story of Chincoteague Island has officially PREMIERED — and is now LIVE on YouTube! 🌊🐴

Thank you so much to everyone who came out to the premiere, waited patiently for the sunset, and stuck with us through a few technical hiccups (if you know, you know). We’re beyond grateful for the support — even if it was a little hard to hear, your presence meant everything to us.

After 500+ hours of work, countless interviews, and a slightly chaotic premiere night, we’re so proud to finally share this project with all of you.

🎥 Watch it now on YouTube (and make sure to bump it to 4K for the full effect!):

Thank you again to everyone who helped bring this to life — we love Chincoteague, and we hope this film shows it. 💙
