The 13 Best Foods to Try While Vacationing at Virginia Beach
"According to them, a Waterman's bartender invented the drink made from fresh squeezed orange juice, orange vodka, triple sec, and Sprite in 1981. I would recommend checking out the summer concert calendar for the 5th Street Beach Stage because the top deck of Waterman's is the perfect location to watch summer concerts with both the view and easy access to great food and drinks."

The 10 Craft Breweries You Have to Drink at in Virginia Beach
"The Backstory: Virginia Beach is more than sandy beaches and ocean waters, and this brewery (opened in 2011) reflects that diversity. The city’s Back Bay region is home to a national wildlife refuge, first established in 1938, as well as the historic Pungo region, which contains 8,000 acres of farmland that’s been producing crops since colonial times. Two of the brewery’s founders, Charlie Burroughs and Josh Canada, have roots in the Back Bay area, and actually decided to go into the beer business while duck-hunting together -- then fittingly named their event space “The Blind” and VIP program “The Hunt Club” to further honor that wildlife culture.The Brewery: The tasting room, located in the ViBe Creative District, is actually closer to the oceanfront than the Back Bay area, but the space retains roots to its namesake: the building is a converted former fish house and the tin walls come from a Back Bay farmhouse."

The very best places to eat and drink in Virginia Beach
"Back Bay Brewing is another great place to sample flights of local beer. Hanging out on oversized picnic tables gives a friendly gathering feel as you sip flights or pints of their Atlantic Avenue IPA or Beach Cruiser Pale Ale. Our favourite part of tasting beer in Virginia Beach was chatting with the locals, everyone was friendly and welcoming and when you add beer or spirits to the mix, it’s a very fun time."

42 Best & Fun Things To Do In Virginia Beach (Virginia)
"The King Neptune Statue is situated at the entrance area of the Virginia Beach Boardwalk and is something that is worth the title of one of the city’s tourist attractions in its own right. Standing at 34 feet in height and fashioned from aesthetically pleasing bronze, it rises out of the Atlantic and stares down over Neptune Park. The money used to construct the King Neptune Statue was raised at the Neptune Festival, an annual event that has been held since 1973 as one of America’s greatest festivals."

Top 10 Tourist Attractions in Virginia Beach, Virginia
"You don't need a lot of time to check out the King Neptune Statue along the boardwalk, but it is still worth adding to your checklist. This bronze statue is 34 feet high and seems to rise right out of the Atlantic Ocean from the intersection of Atlantic Avenue and 31st Street, where it overlooks Neptune Park. This statue honors the Neptune Festival held in September and volunteers from this festival raised the money to hire Paul DiPasquale to design and create this famous statue."

"What makes this ice cream parlor standout is their lineup of frozen custard as opposed to the run of the mill ice cream selection found in other establishments. If you haven’t tried frozen custard, Kohr Brothers would be a good introduction to this deliciously rich treat. The addition of eggs to the recipe results to thicker, richer ice cream than is wonderfully sinful."
