Absolutely beautiful park, pier and beach! My favorite place to go with my own family and with the families I photograph. Here’s a few of my favorites from Sandbridge family photo sessions.

Wide open beach that can get extremely crowded during peak-season. We stay clear that time of year! People act like this place is a secret; but so many people think that that it defeats the purpose. We only come here during the off season. If you can manage to get out here on a weekday or a cooler weekend, it’s not as crowded and worth the drive. A bit off the beaten path compared to the rest of Hampton Roads; but that’s a good thing! A lot of facilities; just be aware the southern bathroom building is closed during the off-season. But at least the parking is free then too. Decent waves. Great for dolphin spotting.

Great little park on the beach. Had a fishing pier. Wasn't busy at all however I went in the middle of winter I imagine summer time is a lot different.

We are coming down at the end of September. How is the fishing?

The fishing is pretty good. Bloodworms or bloodworm fishbites on drop rigs seem to work pretty good on this pier. Squid variety works well also.

Planning to come August 9th. Curious how early we need to arrive for parking and how crowded it gets on the weekend? Is there a lot of jellyfish in the water?

I would get there between 8 & 9. That way you'll be able to get a spot under the pier. This allows for social distancing while having a personal section for your family. Parking is tight but there are plenty of spaces. I was there two weeks ago and didn't see any jellyfish. If you want jellyfish, go to Ocean View lol

Not nearly as crowded as the oceanfront. We have been on Saturdays late in the afternoon and had no problem with distancing.
