Onancock and Pungoteague anchor this coastal landscape on the Eastern Shore of Virginia, where the land fragmentizes into a complex system of necks and islands. The shoreline along the Chesapeake Bay is defined by numerous points and inlets, such as Thicket Point and Finneys Neck, which historically facilitated maritime transport. This coastal reliance is evidenced by surviving infrastructure like Evans Wharf, Boggs Wharf, and Poplar Cove Wharf.
