Beyond pristine wilderness and beaches stretching as far as the eye can see, what you may not know is that the Eastern Shore is also is home to some amazing culinary adventures.

Seawind Landing Country Inn

Here the menu features unique offerings like Blueberry Stuffed French Toast Brulée for breakfast, or any of a number of locally sourced seafood delights on their dinner menu. Everything served is freshly made in-house and the dining room has become a favourite with foodies far and near. We recommend saving space for dessert too!
