Virginia Beach stretches 4.8 km (3 mi) along the waterfront of a town of the same name. Sunbathe on the soft sand, or shop for souvenirs on the main street along the beach. The white sand beach is bound by the ocean and a boardwalk featuring museums, monuments, and sculptures. Follow the boardwalk for the Virginia Legends Walk to learn about famous citizens of the state like Thomas Jefferson, Edgar Allen Poe, and Ella Fitzgerald. If you’re into fishing, try your luck along the fishing pier, accessible from the boardwalk. A visit to Virginia Beach represents just the start of the adventure when you use our Virginia Beach holiday maker app to plot your vacation.

The beach is clean and well maintained with a very nice boardwalk along it. It’s a little crowded but not to the point it’s an issue. While it’s a nice beach, there isn’t anything special about it.

We loved all the murals that you can see between Atlantic and Pacific. There were statues along the boardwalk, had to look for some. Neptune was pretty easy to find as well. Plenty of ice cream shops.... more

Had a great time! KITE FESTIVAL! 💯❤ Side street meter parking. No parking on Atlantic Avenue and biting flies took away one star. Other than that we had a great time ☺️🥰

It's fun. It has all the good places to get souvenirs and henna tattoos. Great for restaurants and the ocean is beautiful. They have live on Atlantic during the summer so they have live music and magicians for free.
