Munden Point Park

Riverside Escape

Positioned on the North Landing River in Virginia Beach, Munden Point Park spreads across 100 acres of natural beauty and recreational space. It offers a refreshing alternative to the bustling oceanfront that Virginia Beach is typically known for.

The park sits along a significant stretch of the Intracoastal Waterway, treating you to peaceful river views that change with the seasons. If you're looking to reconnect with nature without driving hours from the city, this tranquil waterfront setting hits the sweet spot.

Natural Wonders

Wandering through Munden Point feels like discovering a pocket of wilderness in the midst of Virginia Beach. With its mix of open meadows and shaded woods, you can find plenty of perfect spots to throw down a blanket for a picnic or simply sit back and soak in the surroundings.

The paved walking trails weave through different habitats, making for easy exploration no matter your fitness level. Keep your eyes peeled for the local residents - osprey soaring overhead, deer quietly grazing at dusk, turtles sunning themselves by the water's edge, and a chorus of birds providing the soundtrack to your visit.

On the Water

The North Landing River is a central feature, and the park provides good access to get out on the water. A well-maintained boat ramp and dedicated kayak/canoe launch area mean you can bring your watercraft and be floating within minutes.

Don't own a kayak? No problem. The park offers kayak rentals with a straightforward reservation process. If fishing is more your style, this spot offers some quality freshwater fishing opportunities - just remember to bring your Virginia Freshwater Fishing License before casting your line.

Play All Day

For the more active visitors, Munden Point offers several options. The park is equipped with ball fields, basketball courts, and volleyball courts that are typically less crowded than facilities closer to the oceanfront.

Disc golf enthusiasts will appreciate the 18-hole course that winds through the park's landscape. With different tees and baskets at each hole, it accommodates both newcomers and experienced players. Some holes feature water hazards and technical shots that keep the game interesting without being overwhelming.

Fancying something more laid-back? Try your hand at the horseshoe pits or the built-in cornhole boards scattered within the grounds - meant for friendly competition while enjoying the outdoors.

Family-Friendly Features

If you're visiting with kids, the multiple playgrounds are bound to be a hit. The equipment is modern, well-maintained, and designed with different age groups in mind - providing good options for children of different ages.

Planning a family gathering? Several picnic areas include large shelters with charcoal grills that you can reserve ahead of time. Each shelter is strategically placed near various amenities, and some offer beautiful waterfront views that make for memorable family photos.

The park even features an outdoor amphitheater available by reservation - well-suited for everything from intimate weddings to educational programs. And yes, there are clean restrooms and vending machines throughout, so you can comfortably spend a full day exploring.

Park Upkeep

The park is generally well-maintained with clean facilities and a safe atmosphere.

Your four-legged friends are welcome too, however they'll need to stay on leash. Thoughtfully placed waste stations throughout the park make it easy to clean up after your pet and preserve the natural beauty for everyone to enjoy.
