Explore the beautiful and exciting things to do in Virginia Beach. We know you will only consider the oceanfront area when it comes to local attractions in Virginia Beach, but don’t forget that Virginia Beach is a very large region and there are plenty of things to do inland, or to the north or south.
Use the comprehensive search area below to find out everything there is to do in our fantastic region. We also have included some things to do in our neighboring cities like Norfolk, Portsmouth, Suffolk and Chesapeake.
Walk or bike the 3-mile boardwalk, spend a beach day at the oceanfront, visit the Virginia Aquarium & Marine Science Center, and explore First Landing State Park. The Cape Henry Lighthouse is worth the climb for the view.
Yes — the 3-mile boardwalk and adjoining bike path are completely free to enjoy on foot or by bike. Bike and surrey rentals are available from vendors all along the route.
Kayaking through Back Bay National Wildlife Refuge, hiking the trails at First Landing State Park, and dolphin-watching boat tours from Rudee Inlet are local favorites. Surf lessons run all summer at the oceanfront.
The Virginia Aquarium, the Military Aviation Museum, and indoor climbing gyms are great rainy-day bets. Town Center offers shopping, movies, and restaurants all under cover.
If you want a quieter beach day away from the resort crowds, yes — Sandbridge has a more residential, laid-back feel about 20 minutes south. Parking fills early on summer weekends, so arrive before mid-morning.
