Walk the Virginia Beach Boardwalk

Watch the ocean change colors as the sun sets behind you. If you’re lucky, you can watch the moon rise over the ocean and – if it’s not cloudy – cast moonbeams on the water.
Enjoy Art in Virginia Beach

You and your love will enjoy strolling through the museum’s galleries to find the pieces that speak to both of you (and you can explain to each other why they do so). The museum is known for its glass artwork collection, as well as an on-site glass studio where you can watch glass artists at work.
Picnic on the Beach
Pack a picnic basket with chilled champagne, bring some strawberries dipped in chocolate, some crackers and cheese, and other favorite finger foods, bring some big towels or blankets for spreading on the sand, and take your sweetheart for a romantic supper on the Atlantic shore. Visit Sandbridge Beach for more seclusion as you enjoy that beach’s pristine waters.
Walk the Beautiful Gardens
