Social Distancing-Friendly Activities at Chesapeake Bay KOA

COVID-19 might be keeping you away from the campground right now, but camping season isn’t canceled.

When you can return to the campground, it’s still important to practice social distancing. Luckily, the Eastern Shore of Virginia has lots of open spaces where you can be socially distant and still have fun.

Don’t forget to pack essentials, like a face mask, disinfectant wipes and hand sanitizer, so you can stop the spread of germs and stay six feet away from others.

Here are a few ways to enjoy the great outdoors while staying safe and keeping others healthy.

Hiking

Chesapeake Bay KOA is surrounded by parkland, and the Eastern Shore of Virginia as a whole is home to hundreds of thousands of acres of protected land. That makes for some great hiking. Head to Kiptopeke State Park, just north of Chesapeake Bay KOA, for some incredible trails overlooking the Chesapeake Bay. Eastern Shore National Wildlife Refuge also has beautiful trails with lots of opportunities for wildlife observation.

Here are a few other fun hikes to check out during a visit to Chesapeake Bay KOA.
