Virginia Beach is a great place for activities, and you can always get away from the tourist crush to Back Bay Wildlife Reserve or First Landing. But vacationers should be aware that fighter jets fly… Full review by Peter H

The place would get 5 stars from me if it weren't for the fact you get a second hand high from all the weed being smoked everywhere you go! The place was clean. It felt safe for the family to go an… Full review by david a
We are visiting VA beach on Saturday and staying through the next week. Now I am reading news about overcrowding in the beach and people not wearing masks or maintaining social distancing on the beach or boardwalk. How bad is it? Little nervous visiting in the light of what I am reading.
A:
On the beach ppl social distanced pretty well. On the Boardwalk ppl also wore mask. On Atlantic street things were iffy. It’s hot and difficult but we stayed away from ppl so we were fine.
What is parking like in September on Thursday, Friday & early Saturday? We're planning on coming out in less than 10 days. Also, will water be warm enough to at least get knee deep for a while? Weather website says high temperatures should be 79ish for the time we're staying.

Parking on the street requires a credit card. There are also parking decks and lots. September is, in my opinion, the best time to go to Va Beach. The water is cool but you can …
Parking on the street requires a credit card. There are also parking decks and lots. September is, in my opinion, the best time to go to Va Beach. The water is cool but you can certainly go in to your knees. The Neptune Festival is the last weekend of the month and a fun event. Just know the area shall be somewhat crowded then. Otherwise, enjoy your stay. One of the best beaches on the East Coast.
Travelling down with my husband and 2 kids (11 & 14) from Toronto. This is our first time and just exploring the area/accommodations. Any recommendations in terms of where to stay? What area of the beach? Thanks!
A:
I’ve grown up here.just really depends. If you have a car. It’s cheaper to stay a little further from the beach. Personally I’d stay more towards the north end. PAST 24th (unlike the other …
I’ve grown up here.just really depends. If you have a car. It’s cheaper to stay a little further from the beach. Personally I’d stay more towards the north end. PAST 24th (unlike the other comments) and not around 1st either. It depends on how touristy you want your visit. Right now til Labor Day I don’t like to head to even that part of the oceanfront due to parking/heat/tourists (it was 101 yesterday)
