Chesapeake Beach Park

Chesapeake Beach Park, also known locally as Chic's Beach, is a public beach area located along the Chesapeake Bay in Virginia Beach, Virginia. The park offers a more relaxed alternative to the bustling oceanfront beaches, featuring calmer waters and a laid-back atmosphere.

The beach stretches for approximately 2 miles along Shore Drive, providing ample space for visitors to spread out and enjoy various activities. The park's shoreline faces north, offering views of the Chesapeake Bay Bridge-Tunnel in the distance.

Chesapeake Beach Park is known for its family-friendly environment and is popular among locals. The gentle waves make it suitable for swimming, especially for younger children. Visitors can also engage in activities such as sunbathing, beachcombing, and watching for dolphins in the bay.

Unlike the main resort area, Chesapeake Beach Park has minimal commercial development, maintaining a more residential feel. There are a few local restaurants and shops in the vicinity, but the focus remains on the natural beach environment.
