Onancock (pronounced “oh-NANN-kock”) Creek lies almost 20 nm southwest of the mouth of the Pocomoke River and about 5 nm southeast of Watts Island. One of the most beautiful tributaries on Virginia’s Eastern Shore, it is deep, well marked and winds 5 miles from flashing green “1” at the creek’s mouth east to the town of Onancock. The town center is a short walk up the hill through a residential area. Little in the way of provisioning is readily available close to the waterfront, but Onancock offers several good restaurants and a few shops in a scenic setting.
