About Virginia Beach

Virginia Beach is a resort city on Virginia's Atlantic coast, with a long boardwalk and beach, a state park at Cape Henry and Chesapeake Bay marshes.

Virginia Beach faces the Atlantic at the mouth of the Chesapeake Bay, with a wide sandy beach and an oceanfront boardwalk of about five kilometres lined with hotels, cafés and a statue of King Neptune. The city is large and spread out, with navy bases and the Hampton Roads cities of Norfolk and Portsmouth beside it.
