21st Bay St., North end behind Ship's Captain Restaurant
This beach point is part of Norfolk's Ocean View Beach on Chesapeake Bay. Ocean View beaches are a great place to swim, sunbathe, fish, or picnic. During the summer beach season (Memorial Day through Labor Day), there are no pets permitted on the beach from 10am - 6pm. Ocean View beach has lifeguards on duty also from May to September. Public washrooms and showers are available at the beach.
Keep your distance from other people.
Practicing social distancing is still essential. Only go to the beach if you are able to keep 6 feet or 2 meters away from others. Follow the instructions provided by your local health authorities. If your community has asked that you remain indoors and away from others, do so. Spending a day in any crowded place is the worst thing we can do for our most vulnerable right now and will counter our efforts to curb the virus’s spread.
- Passed water quality tests at least 95% of the time
