Lovers of the outdoors in Chesapeake know that the place to enjoy the natural beauty of the area is the Western Branch Park and Sports Park. This hub of outdoor activity and fun attracts various teams, groups and families out to enjoy its many amenities. This 80-acre site is the home of an impressive variety of sports attractions that include multipurpose softball fields with lights, lighted tennis courts and basketball courts. If you feel like you would rather commune with nature than play a sport, enjoy the spectacle of thousands of wildflowers that adorn a winding nature trail that is perfect for walking and running.

A two-lane boat ramp is just one of the many attractive features to be found at Great Bridge Lock Park. Located along the Intracoastal Waterway just off Battlefield Boulevard, this spot is named after the lock that separates saltwater and freshwater bodies of water, which of course offers anglers the opportunity to catch different types of fish as they light out to the body of water of their choice. The area also welcomes swimmers, water skiers, and all fans of water sports fun.
