Hi Joe,
Just wanted to pass along a tip about a great place to go in the area. The Pocomoke River Canoe Company is located right near the drawbridge on the river in Snow Hill. They rent kayaks and canoes and also have several places they can drop you off. My favorite trip is to put in at Porters Crossing and paddle 5.5 miles down river back to Snow Hill. Beautiful scenery, great fishing and wonderful people make this an exceptional day trip. The employees at the Canoe Company will load your boats for you, make sure you know exactly where to go and are super nice. If you have your own canoe or kayak its $10.00 for the drop off, if you need to rent it's $40.00 for the rental and the ride. Considering you can fit two adults and several children in a canoe, this is a pretty reasonable family outing. You can see turtles, birds and assorted other wildlife, get some sun and see some of the best scenery DelMarVa has to offer. Just wanted to let you know!

I took that trip just a couple weeks ago and I can't say enough about how wonderful the guys were to my friend in I. They explained several landmarks to help guide are way thru the trail. They even pushed us off and made sure we were okay after we got into our kayaks. It was wonderful trip please go visit and spend some of your hard earned money with these guys you won't regret the experience!
We visited a few yrs ago,it was great!The scenery was breathtaking,I almost steered us into the bank looking at the big turtles out sunbathing.
Happy to know that our paddlers love both our river and our service. Those of us on the staff at the canoe company understand that our first job is to make sure that everyone who paddles the Pocomoke - in their boats or ours - has the best possible experience. ON ANOTHER TOPIC: Visit www.jessespaddle.org to learn of an important non-profit scholarship fund created by friends of the Pocomoke River Canoe Company to memorialize a young man who worked summers with us and who died way too young. It's an effort that is near to our hearts and we appreciate all the support we can get from paddlers who love our spectacular river.
