History and nature come together in a truly memorable way at the Cape Henry Lighthouse. This lighthouse, established in 1791, has the distinction of being one of the country's oldest government-built lighthouses. The historic attraction played a key role in the commercial development of the area as well as a dramatically historic one–it is located near where the English settlers arrived in 1607. Even though it sustained damage during the Civil War, it was restored and promises a truly breathtaking view when you ascend to its top lookout point. Tours are available. The lighthouse is open all year except from December 1st to January 5.

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!

While hundreds of people consider a walk on the beach a romantic cliché, that fact doesn't make the idea any less desirable, especially if the beach in question is Sandbridge Beach in Virginia Beach. This isn't your usual surfside scene. This invitingly secluded stretch of shoreline is a pristine hideaway that features lush dunes and an unforgettable view of the Atlantic Ocean. A perfect choice for a romantic picnic, a meeting at sunset or, if you prefer, one of those romantic strolls along the sand.
