This is the 3rd year we've booked Tortuga Sunrise for Thanksgiving and again we were just as satisfied with our stay as we were 3 years ago. We were lucky enough to enjoy a couple of unusually calm days with no wind, making the bay almost glassy. We caught a lot of speckled trout under the green light on the pier -- no keepers, but it was a lot of fun catching fish. I always bring a puzzle with me, and the huge dining room table makes for a great work surface. One of my favorites is seeing the massive ships passing by at night, I always wonder where they're on their way to and what they might be carrying. We only ate out twice. Once we got to go orders from Shempy's (practically just across the highway) and one night ate at 495 Chesapeake Eats in downtown Rockport. They have an extensive bourbon menu which drew my husband's attention, but the food was fantastic too. We scored some art at a local shop in downtown Rockport, that thankfully just fit inside the cab of our truck to get it home. Can't wait to get back again next year!
