There's nothing ordinary about spending a day outdoors at the park when your destination is Virginia Beach's Great Neck Park. While planning a relaxing picnic lunch on a big blanket is a great idea, there is so much more here to experience. You can enjoy such activities as enjoying a game on one of the many ball fields, shoot hoops on one of the basketball courts, enjoy fun at the horseshoe pits, or enjoy a friendly game of volleyball. The kids will love the large playground areas, and there are sheltered pavilions and restrooms conveniently located throughout the park.

So many times, kids are used to hearing commands to keep their hands off of things and not to touch various items. That is the complete opposite of what they will hear when they step into the Children's Museum of Virginia. Touching, holding and interacting with the various attractions and exhibits is highly encouraged by everyone. Kids can get up close and learn about such fascinating subjects as ocean science, technology, and other various science-related subjects. During your visit, don't forget to stop by the excellent gift shop that features t-shirts, souvenirs and more.

Even though the sun has gone down, that doesn't mean that the heat has let up one bit when you make plans to spend your evening at Peabody's. This high energy dance club features the largest dance floor in Virginia and touts itself as the hottest place to get your groove on. You can literally party with thousands as this nightlife venue can accommodate quite a crowd. The drinks are served by expert barkeeps, the atmosphere is fun, energetic and yet inviting, and there is even an area to kick back and check out what's on one of the many big screen televisions. And of course, the crowd is filled with some of the most visually appealing people in town!

Treat your sweetie to a day at the beach that isn't filled with the challenge of fighting the crowds and all the stress that goes with it. Instead, plan to spend a relaxing day on a romantic date at First Landing Cross. The area is also known as Chesapeake Beach and you can comfortably stretch out on your beach blanket to sunbathe, take in the scenery or swim in the protected shallow waters.
