Spending a day in the great outdoors of Virginia Beach wouldn't be complete without a visit to the Mount Trashmore Park. Amazingly, this popular park was once a landfill, but since its reconstruction, it now features 165 acres of children's playgrounds and recreational facilities. One of the more popular features is a state-of-the-art skateboard park, but there are also more conventional amenities available like basketball and volleyball courts, two lakes, picnic facilities and trails. Plus, the park is the site of various special events, concerts, and attractions throughout the year.

You can't visit Virginia Beach and not experience the sights, sounds and tastes of Hot Tuna Bar and Grill. This is one of the area's premier nightlife spots for great food, great fun and great entertainment. Both the food and drink menus are extensive and feature the best seafood and steaks as well as imported beers that will satisfy appetites (and thirsts) of every size. Plus, the venue offers the best live bands and DJs that play the best Top 40 music. There's never a cover and you can always find plenty of free parking in close proximity to the fun.

Gallop your way to a truly fun outdoor experience when you visit the East Coast Equestrian Training Center in Virginia Beach.

And, the center is only seven miles from the closest beach, so you can plan to enjoy a relaxing (and memorable) horseback ride along some of Virginia Beach's most scenic stretches of coastline.
