With a name like Virginia Beach you already know what to expect from the city and it does not fail to deliver. With over 35 miles worth of sandy Atlantic beaches, the Oceanfront promenade and plenty of outdoor activities Virginia Beach is one of the United State’s prime tourist destinations. Although once known as the Redneck Riviera, Virginia Beach has worked hard to shrug off its past reputation and is now cleaner and more environmentally conscious than ever before. Apart from the beaches there are also plenty of nice parks and other tourist attractions worth seeing as well as a few standout museums and historical sights.
