Chincoteague Inlet

It is 30 miles south-southwestward from the Ocean City, MD Inlet.

Prominent on the approach are Assateague Light shown from a 142-foot red and white horizontally banded conical tower and a lookout tower on the southern tip of Assateague Island; both are visible well offshore.

The marked channel through the inlet to Chincoteague Channel is subject to frequent change; the buoys are shifted with changing conditions.

A sunken wreck is about 0.4 mile southwest of Fishing Point in 37°51’54" N., 75°24’04" W.
