Huntington Park is the site of the Huntington Park Tennis Center in Newport News. In addition to tennis facilities and competitions, the site also includes a public beach where visitors can swim, fish, or launch boats. If water activities aren't your interest, you can also stroll through the rose garden, enjoy a picnic, or play a game of ball. There is a beach concession stand and restaurant. At nearby Lake Biggins, the Virginia Department of Inland Game & Fisheries stocks the lake.
Keep your distance from other people.
Practicing social distancing is essential right now. Follow the advice of the health experts. If your community has asked that you remain indoors and away from others, do so. Heading to the beach should only be considered an option if social distancing practices can be followed. Spending a day in any crowded place is the worst thing we can do for our most vulnerable right now and will counter the efforts to curb the virus’ spread.
