If you are wondering if Virginia Beach is a good place to spend your summer vacation, I would absolutely recommend it! As a native and travel writer who frequently covers tourism in the city, I can provide you with a few popular recommendations.
From restaurants and bars to concert stages, museums, an art district, and the Atlantic Ocean, your family or friend group will have no problem finding activities and entertainment.
The Oceanfront offers free concert nights, Beach Blanket Cinemas, ECSC surf competition, multi-day music festivals, July 4th and Labor Day festivities.
Aside from your typical beach day fun, you'll find amusement parks, water parks, arcades, museums, parks, the Virginia Aquarium, ice cream shops, and more.
