Things To Do
We take life a little slower here at the river. So we hope you'll enjoy your weekend to rest and soak it all in. There are plenty of things to do - lots of restaurants, beaches, and shops. Cute downtowns and historic homes. But you might equally enjoy soaking in the view of the water, watching sunset, and enjoying the quiet it has to offer.

Where the locals go for all things oysters.
Hughlett Point Natural Area Preserve
Kilmarnock, VA 22482, (804) 786-7951
This is Charlie's favorite beach. A short walk on a trail through the woods ends with a scenic beach looking onto the bay. When tide is low you can make a 1 mile walking loop. With higher tide, exploring the beach is still an option. And the view is endless.
