First Landing State Park Beach

North Virginia Beach's First Landing State Park is situated on Cape Henry. Visitors can participate in a variety of activities at this 2,888-acre park. When you visit First Landing, you can go swimming, hiking, biking, boating, fishing, or having a picnic. No matter how long you can stay—for a few hours or for a whole day—you can enjoy yourself in the park. You can spend the night in the park as well, either at a campsite or in one of the cottages. By arranging an overnight stay, you may avoid the busy pace of Virginia Beach's more densely populated districts while still being accessible to everything the region has to offer.

First Landing State Park is one of the few public access sites to the beach on the Chesapeake Bay. Families or anyone looking for a day at the beach without the Atlantic Ocean's surf should consider this beach. Additionally, compared to other beaches in Virginia, this one is less congested. Compared to the Virginia Atlantic Ocean beaches' hotel-dotted coasts, First Landing State Park's beach is more picturesque in its natural state. Sand dunes, maritime forest, and native plants including shrubs cover the coastline here. You should bring insect repellant with you to the beach because this beach is more susceptible to insects due to its more natural surroundings. Four boardwalks that span the sand to the waterfront make it simple to get to the beach. The Chesapeake Bay Center, which has parking and restrooms, is home to one of the main boardwalks.
