Waterfront
Our waterfront consist of a swimming area, Canoe, Kayak, and Paddle Board Launch Site, and home to our new Living Shore Line. If you are looking for a small trip out to fish, paddle around, or just to sit and relax on the shore, there is no better place than to do it at Occohannock on the Bay. We can promise that being here for the sunsets alone will take your
breath away.

Game Field (G-Field)
The Game Field is used for many things from football, soccer, softball, outdoor camp games, fourth of July relay races, to cook-outs, family reunion space, outdoor movies, and hosting Boy Scouts camp outs. There is nothing you can't do with space like this. There is also a picnic shelter that has electricity, tables, and water for users.
Michael Evans Eagle Scout Project 2005. Thank You!
Archery Range
The archery range was built by Michael Evans as an Eagle Scout Project part of Troop 313 from Onancock VA. The range was built in 2005 just in time for the first week of camp that year. Before this beautiful archery range was built the targets were placed on aluminum tripod stands that had to be carried out to the G-Field. Now everything is conveniently close by and stored in a closet space attached to the building.

Low Ropes Course
The purpose of the Rope Course Elements are to build your group's communication, teamwork, listening, and support skills. Through these elements the group will come to understand the needs of the group to succeed not only to complete the elements but will also to succeed in life. Groups will usually follow different stages while working on each elements. The following are those stages: Forming (getting to know you stage), Storming (power and control stage), Norming (understanding the importance of the group), Performing (the Hight of working together), and Reforming (what was accomplished).

Rock Wall
The rock wall is the start to our high ropes course and like most high rope elements it is "Challenge by Choice". Most High Rope Elements are for the individual to challenging one's self to go further and push harder than what the mind tells them they can. No one person does the elements completely alone. You have your trained staff and the support of your group cheering you on the whole way. We however do encourage all to at least try to over come their fears and get as high as they feel comfortable.

Biking
When you stay with us, we have you covered not only for the water but on land too. We have bikes that can give you what you need to enjoy a quiet ride down the back roads with friends, family or by yourself.
Volleyball, Basketball, Soccer and Gaga Ball
We know how important it is to stay active and so we have plenty for you and your group to do. All equipment is here for any activity that catches your eyes. Just recently we added our new Gaga Pit which was built by Alex Gibb in June of 2013. Another proud Eagle Scout Project done here at Camp Occohannock on the Bay. We also have flag football and some softball equipment.
