The classic Drifters song “Under the Boardwalk” is filled with romantic seaside images. You can find those scenarios and lots more when you plan a special romantic excursion to the Virginia Beach Boardwalk. This is the area's newly renovated, three-mile stretch of boardwalk that offers an excellent choice of restaurants, outdoor cafes, shops and entertainment. There are even outdoor music performances and concerts scheduled at various times throughout the year.

The season runs April to October to see dolphins and December through March to see whales. Beverages are available on the trip, too.
