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.

Embrace nature in a truly amazing way when you visit the False Cape State Park. This incredible slice of land is located at the southern end of Sandbridge Beach. You will immediately be struck by the area's rich outdoor beauty, and also by the fact that this area is the gateway to over 12,000 acres of protected coastal marsh habitat that offer a dramatic (and rare) opportunity to see nature in its purest form. You can get even closer to it all when you let the professionals at Back Bay Getaways lead you on an informative and entertaining trek through the area.

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.
