Things To Do

There are so many great places in Virginia Beach but we've listed a few of our favorites here. We highly recommend looking at the breweries and coffee shops in the area.
Town Center Drive

Cooper's Hawk Winery & Restaurant

Cooper's Hawk Winery & Restaurant

733 Lynnhaven Mall Loop, Virginia Beach, VA 23452

Chris and I LOVE this place. They have a full bar (it's not just wine) and their food is delicious. Our favorite wine is the Tempranillo but they have a tasting area where you can taste up to 8 different wines! This is one of our favorite parts about going here. It's usually crowded on weekend nights so we recommend making reservations.

Navy SEAL Monument

Navy SEAL Monument

3800 Atlantic Ave, Virginia Beach, VA 23451

A monument that depicts a WWII Underwater Demolition Team swimmer atop a beach obstacle, facing the ocean, gathering himself to conduct a combat mission. He is life-size, denoting that the SEAL reputation was made not by supermen, but by ordinary men who do extraordinary things for their country.

New Realm Brewing
