Chincoteague's Captain Barry's Back Bay Cruises

 I admit up front that Captain Barry Frishman is the husband of my cousin, Aleda - but I think that I can write an honest opinion of Barry's cruises.  Barry is a member of the Chincoteague Island Charterboat Association, and he has run cruises and tours in the waters surrounding Chincoteague for at least 20 years.

I have never heard a derogatory remark made about Captain Barry, his boat, or his treatment of clients.  He's a happy-go-lucky soul, and especially enjoys teaching youngsters (and adults) about the marine and island ecology systems - and why they are so important to the United States, and the world, as a whole. His day cruises are fun, entertaining, and very educational.  They can be very hands-on, or you can sit back and watch your friends and family enjoy the cruise.

   Barry's Champagne Sunset Cruises are quiet and private affairs - and the scenery is wonderful.

Jellyfish are common catches

Dolphins may be seen

And, while Cap'n Barry does not guarantee seeing Chincoteague ponies on Assateague, there is always a high possibility of it happening...

I endorse any cruise, boating, or fishing opportunity with Captain Barry.  He's the best. Period.
