I have been to Norfolk, HR, VaBeach area many times. Not a Family Place at all. There are a few nice spots like downtown Norfolk. Mainly its one GIANT GHETTO! Virginia Beach is the worst. They had to enact laws and strict dress codes for the gang members that were getting in fights on the beach so often. I hated going up there. Solution: Drive about an hour south to the Outer Banks of North Carolina!!!!! (OBX)! Incredible Beaches, nice people, very safe, and most of all worth seeing! I wouldn’t recommend going to VaBeach unless you are a 1) felon, 2)looking to get in a brawl, or 3) want to be caught in a drive-by! Its a piece of crap town! Other solution: Go a little farther north to Williamsburg!
