Stunning seaside! Hidden gems of Virginia Beach, don't miss out!

Hey everyone! Today, I'm sharing a stunning seaside city healed by the Atlantic Ocean—Virginia Beach! With 35 miles of white sand beaches and a 3-mile boardwalk, every photo you take is Instagram-worthy. Follow these three steps to easily navigate this vacation paradise👇 📍Top 3 Must-Dos: 1️⃣ Stroll and unwind along the boardwalk Walk from the Poseidon statue to the lighthouse, with the sound of the Atlantic waves as your natural background music! I recommend going at 4 pm, as the sunset paints the sky in romantic shades of pink and purple. 2️⃣ Half-day trip to an oyster farm Go out to sea with a fishing boat, harvest fresh oysters, and slurp them down with ice-cold lemonade—a truly soul-stirring experience! Remember to bring a jacket, as there's a sea breeze on the boat. 3️⃣ Explore the military base Fort Story is open to the public, and you can even climb the 1881 lighthouse for a panoramic view of the coastline! Taking photos in matching outfits is super photogenic. 🍴Hidden foodie guide: • The Crab House is a must-try for brunch. Blue crab legs with mint sauce are a match made in heaven. • The farmers market opens on Saturdays, and freshly baked apple pie is only $3. • Local recommendation: The Beach House Hotel. Enjoy the sunrise directly from the floor-to-ceiling windows of your ocean-view room. ⚠️Tips to avoid pitfalls: 1. Choose neap tides for surfing (around the beginning/middle of each month). 2. Reserve beach volleyball courts in advance. 3. Remember to bring binoculars for whale watching season (March-May). 🚗Transportation tips: • 3.5-hour drive from Washington, D.C. • Taxis start at $2.15 within the city. • Shared e-scooters cover major attractions.
