It also highlights tourism attractions, wine and craft beer, and oysters, which the region is widely known for. Dating back to the 1600’s, the Bay area was populated with thriving Native American communities. It was home to diverse wildlife and fertile soil, and was the location for the second permanent English settlement in the Americas. With the passage of time, port towns were established along the coast and the Bay’s rich bounty of oysters and blue crab led to a thriving fishing industry. Today, that region continues to be the heart of Virginia’s coast.</span><div><span style='font-family: &quot;Avenir Next W01&quot;, &quot;Avenir Next W00&quot;, &quot;Avenir Next&quot;, Avenir, &quot;Helvetica Neue&quot;, Helvetica, Arial, sans-serif; font-size: 17px;'><br /></span></div><div><span style='font-family: &quot;Avenir Next W01&quot;, &quot;Avenir Next W00&quot;, &quot;Avenir Next&quot;, Avenir, &quot;Helvetica Neue&quot;, Helvetica, Arial, sans-serif; font-size: 17px;'>Order the official map online, pick one up at Virginia’s staffed welcome centers and safety rest areas, or request one from the Virginia Tourism Corporation.</span></div>
