Is Virginia Beach Open?

The season is in full swing, and this time of year is normally ideal for planning a day at the beach. However, with social distancing measures in effect, you may be cautious about visiting Virginia Beach. 

If you miss the salty sea air and want a responsible, socially distanced vacation, the Virginia Beach oceanfront is open. When you book a stay at Virginia Beach KOA, we offer a thoroughly clean and socially distanced setting to serve as your basecamp for exploring this gorgeous coastal community. 

How Safe Is Virginia Beach?

Is Virginia Beach a safe place to visit? The answer is yes. While you should always be cautious, especially in the presence of large crowds, the beach may be one of the safest vacation destinations during this time because you are outside in the sun.

Our local community and businesses are doing everything they can to ensure the health and safety of visitors. The city has enhanced its cleaning strategies, especially targeting high-touch public surfaces. Local officials are also enforcing physical distancing measures.

From restaurants to local attractions, we are taking our governor's restrictions very seriously to protect those who visit our shores. If you are planning to hit the beach, here are a few rules to keep in mind:

• Keep six feet apart from other beach-goers.
• Avoid gathering in groups of 50 or more.
• Limit your cooler size to less than 39 quarts.
• Do not bring alcohol with you.

Also, before you hit the road, you may want to check local closures to see what is open or closed in VA Beach. 

Things to Do While Staying Socially Distanced

While we continue to watch and adapt to current events, there are still tons of ways to enjoy Virginia Beach this summer, such as:

• Spend the day swimming, surfing and building sandcastles.
• Stroll along the boardwalk.
• Dine al fresco at one of our delicious seafood restaurants.
• Rent a bike and ride the trails at First Landing State Park.
• Fish the waters in the "Rockfish Capital of the World."
