Lynnhaven Oyster Tasting at The Atlantic on Pacific | Virginia Beach | Travels with Darley

Join Darley Newman at The Atlantic on Pacific in Virginia Beach, Virginia, where she dives into local oyster culture, happy hour favorites, and oyster shooters. Virginia is known as a hotspot for oysters thanks to the Eastern Shore, Chesapeake Bay, and healthy waterways that support a thriving aquaculture industry. During this tasting, Darley learns about several standout Virginia oysters, including Laughing King oysters from Cape Charles, Southern Belle oysters harvested in Virginia Beach, and the famous Lynnhaven oysters. Lynnhaven oysters hold a special place in American history, with records showing settlers enjoyed them as early as 1607. Today, they remain a Virginia staple and a must-try when visiting the Virginia Beach area. Chef Jackie Hall also introduces Darley to oyster shooters, made with an oyster, ponzu, and sake for a light and refreshing start to the meal. From coastal history to fresh seafood and local flavors, The Atlantic offers a true taste of Virginia Beach. 📺 Watch Travels with Darley on PBS & Streaming: https://darley-newman.com/tv-show/pbs-tv-preview/ 🔔 Subscribe for More Travel & History Videos: https://darley.link/youtubesubscribe 🎧 Listen to the "Travels with Darley" Podcast: https://www.iheart.com/podcast/53-travels-with-darley-123513653/ 📲 Follow Darley for Exclusive Travel Content: Instagram:https://www.instagram.com/darleynewman/ Facebook:https://www.facebook.com/travelswithdarley TikTok:https://www.tiktok.com/@darleynewman Twitter (X):https://x.com/DarleyNewman
