It’s a nice beach with a throwback seventies feel. We were there yesterday (6 April) and it was great. It was rainy and windy, but the waves were coming in making for a cool experience.

We ate at Abbey Road, a Beatles restaurant knockoff. The food wasn’t particularly good, but we didn’t expect it to be.

Despite the tacky shops and other assorted kitsch, Virginia Beach didn’t feel like a tourist trap. Maybe it’s because it was off season, but I really liked it.

Can’t wait to go back when it is warmer.
