Sandbridge: Virginia’s Outer Banks

Just a stone’s throw from the bustling activity of the Virginia Beach Oceanfront, Sandbridge legitimately feels like another world: 4.5 miles of secluded beaches, gentle breezes and swaying sea oats for your quiet enjoyment. Backed by the tranquility of Currituck Sound to the west and the shimmering Atlantic Ocean to the east, it’s also home to two of the most-beloved natural wonders in Virginia Beach: Back Bay National Wildlife Refuge and False Cape State Park — both brimming with opportunities for hiking, kayaking and fishing. 

Calm waters and wide-open beaches make Sandbridge a great place to paddle out, whether in a kayak, on a stand-up paddleboard or a surfboard Surf & Adventure Co. can help you out with all three; it’s up to you whether you just want to rent the equipment, take a lesson, or embark upon a guided tour. And once you’ve worked up an appetite, Sandbridge is a wonderful place to indulge in our fresh coastal flavors. Here, you’ll find some of the best seafood on the East Coast, courtesy of local faves like Margie & Ray’s Seafood Restaurant.
