There are some great SE Virginia beaches near "the" Virginia Beach that are more more natural -- and often less crowded -- if you are interested in wildlife or camping . Fun and often peaceful beach options on the Atlantic Ocean & Chesapeake Bay + some nearby Rivers & Bays and State Parks.
Beach photo - First Landing State Park beach area on Chesapeake Bay.
Click Image or here for SE Virginia's "Other" beaches" -- Photos, Info Links, Driving directions, and Tips. We had fun watching the Surfers at Croatan - "the Surfers beach." Croatan is just south of the Virginia Beach Boardwalk area and Rudee inlet and is a popular spot for local surfers.
First Landing State Park has a 1.25 mile long beach area fronting on Chesapeake Bay + campsites, RV hookups, and rental cabins (make your reservations early!) Many improvements including 20 miles of hiking, nature, and bicycle trails + a childrens playground make First Landing Virginia's most popular Family Camping park and beach.
View wildlife of all kinds from the many hiking trails at the Black Bay National Wildlife Refuge with very primitive beach and marsh areas. (Bring plenty of insect repellant!)
