Fans of history will not want to miss the opportunity to visit the Portsmouth Naval Shipyard Museum in Portsmouth. This is much more than a history lesson–this impressive facility houses an incredible collection of military artifacts, pictures, weapons and many historic ships including the CSS VIRGINIA (EX-MERRIMAC) as well as the world's first aircraft carrier, the LANGLEY.

When you want to get the family off of the sofa and out into the great outdoors but don't have the time to take an out of town trip, bring everyone out to Mound Park. This lushly inviting attraction is located in the heart of Portsmouth, but you'll feel like you've escaped to an enticing outdoor retreat miles away from it all. The park sprawls out over 8.8 acres and features a walking path, picnic tables, and wide open spaces that are perfect for a game of catch or just lounging in the sun.

Twisted Pig Ale & Smokehouse is one of those unassuming nightlife places that is as comfortable as a pair of favorite jeans. The folks here are friendly and welcoming to anyone who strolls in and takes their place on one of the many bar stools. The waiters and waitresses are always serving up your favorite beverages along with a large helping of great service. A fun, relaxing place to enjoy a few drinks with friends on those nights when you don't feel like dressing up or dealing with large crowds.

Whether your kids are sports fans or not, they will enjoy the experience of visiting the Virginia Sports Hall of Fame and Museum in Portsmouth.
