Visited September 2016. Well maintained trails, informative staff, lots of choices as to where to see the local wildlife. I have limited mobility but was able to easily navigate the trails and boarded walking paths that were closest to the information office.

This refuge is at the very end of Sandbridge beach, nestled between the ocean and the back bay. There are multiple walking trails, easy to manage. There is a small info center, and bathroom facilities. It is a great way to spend a few hours.

Definitely worth the visit during a sunset. The scenery is amazing. So peaceful and quiet. During the day you have to pay an admittance fee. After 6:00 PM you can go in for FREE.

Take the time to enjoy the Blue Goose Tram. Several stops included the historic remains of the Wash settlement. We traveled on a very hot and humid day and the tram ride was still quite enjoyable. Very affordably priced.

This is a great little jaunt outside of the main strip of Virginia Beach and a great way to get outdoors. There are nearly empty beaches to explore and miles of hiking trails along swamps, marshes and sandy beaches. In fact, you can walk all the way to North Carolina from here. A perfect place to have a picnic and...

We went on the Back Bay Trolley trip, well escorted by Herbie and his 'wing man' Jim, aged 93. He took us on a fascinating trip teeming us things and animals of interest along the way. We got out several times to explore seeing an old graveyard going back to the early settlers, another 'graveyard' of old rusted cars left...

Love going here in the summer to fish - Large beaches, uncrowded. Note: they are very restrictive if you go here - no sunbathing/surfing/etc. Only fishing and "observing nature" permitted. They used to allow dogs on leash, but now it is no dogs anytime (which is a shame!)

3 reviews We stop here on every trip to Va Beach. Very quiet and serene. We like to catch thunderstorms as they cross the area. Nice visitor center with clean restrooms.

I did the research before going here and it really isn't easy to find but....at 9:00 they have a three hour tram tour that takes you all over the park for a very minimal cost. We were the only two people on the tour! I guess it is the wrong time of the year for bird watching as we didn't...
