Transfer to the Virginia Aquarium & Marine Science Museum, with more than 800,000 gallons of water and 300 hands-on exhibits. This is the largest aquarium in Virginia, and its exhibits include jellyfish and octopus aquariums, a 70,000-gallon sea turtle aquarium, and a 300,000-gallon ocean aquarium housing sharks, stingrays and other large ocean fish. The spectacular Restless Planet section consists of four immersive habitats and dozens of new items. See how diverse environments from Virginia's past compare to similar environments still in existence today. Shop for ocean, bay and salt marsh-themed gifts in the two beautiful gift shops.
Take in the views of the Atlantic Ocean and Chesapeake Bay on a panoramic drive through Virginia Beach. Along the waterfront, elegant private residences and charming coastal cottages give way to the famous resort strip. You'll have some free time on the Boardwalk. Stroll along the wide sandy beach and perhaps dip your toes in the waters of the Atlantic if you like.
Don't miss a stop at Doumar's — an iconic local drive-in that is home to the world's first ice cream cone machine, still in use today. Order a waffle cone with your choice of ice cream flavor.
Notes:
Wear comfortable walking shoes. Shade is limited; to avoid sunburn, wear light, long clothing suitable for use as a cover-up. Bring a hat and sunglasses; wear biodegradable/reef-safe sunscreen. Bring bottled water.
