Guided Voyager updates destination guidance regularly, but hours, weather, access, and reservations should be checked close to departure.

Before you go

Use the boardwalk early or late. Midday is for swimming, an indoor stop, or a long lunch.
Do not put Sandbridge, the aquarium, and Cape Henry on the same day. The map makes that look sensible. The traffic and parking do not.

Confirm current access, hours, reservations, and conditions with Official Virginia Beach Boardwalk information.
