One of the main appeals of this state park is that it provides a relatively secluded beachfront. Compared to the rest of Virginia Beach, this northern stretch feels way less crowded.

You’ll find that especially true when you opt to stay the night. First Landing offers 200 campsites, some of which are located just off of the Chesapeake Bay near the sand dunes.
