From memory it's Class E between 2500-4500. VFR flight permitted w/o clearance provided you have a transponder squawking 1200.
That being said, it's still a good idea to give AV APP a call and check in with your intentions.

Av Approach, stay in class E, but remember class E extends quite a way across the Belarine Peninsula.
If you forget that and start descending somewhere near Point Henry then Avalon will be calling you..

Hi. I'm planning on transiting Avalon Class E.
Can I just confirm the procedures are: transponder 1200, listening watch on Avalon Approach and remain within Class E? Anything else I am missing?
And should I still boradcast my intentions on Avalon Approach to let them know that I'm planning to transit?

The answers you seek are:
A. Yes.
B. Yes, optional, but good practice. If you call you will be identified in their system and they will know who you are to give traffic advice etc to.
Enjoy.
