Assateague Island National Seashore, MD

How would you like to share your lunch with some wild horses on a long barrier island off the coast of Maryland? Assateague Island National Seashore is well known for its Atlantic beaches, dunes, marshland, and pine forests.

The island is home to bald eagles and seabirds. But perhaps most famously, wild horses that are descendants of some late 17th-century stock brought over by colonists attempting to avoid livestock taxes. The herd now thrives and blends in with the rest of the wildlife.

Camping in the Assateague Island National Seashore contains two campsites. One is for horse camping, and the other is an oceanfront and bayside camping, where travelers can soak up the breathtaking views of the Atlantic ocean with wild horses in the backdrop.
