There is an adventure park at the Virginia Aquarium with zip line course through the trees. A military aviation museum You can hit the observation area near Oceana navel air station and see lots of navy jets There is a pretty nice range/shop called Freedom Shooting Center Hmmmm what else, what kind of stuff are you looking for? |

There is fishing out of rudee inlet. Headboats run daily, half day trips. It’s a decent boat ride even if you don’t do much fishing.
There is a charter speedboat trip on a boat called the Rudee Rocket that is cool. Lots of golf in the area. I-fly indoor skydiving (basically a vertical wind tunnel) In Norfolk there is the USS Wisconsin battleship (idk if it is open for tours right now due to Covid BS) there is also Nauticus which has a lot of navel military museum stuff |

There is Norfolk Botanical gardens which is a nice walk with some pretty cool plants, butterfly gardens etc.
Harbor park is good if you want to catch a baseball game. False cape state park and first landing state park both have nice coastal hiking areas. |

My family enjoyed the Rudee Rocket. Our picture from it just popped up last week on my phone. We saw quite a few dolphins, which was neat. Another time we were down there we went kayaking off the beach, and had dolphins swimming up right next to us, that was really cool. We always play a round at Jungle Golf as well. Nothing that great, basic mini-golf, but it's just a tradition for us. And if you're looking for a cheap meal, the Wendy's across the street had normal prices, rather than elevated @ the beach pricing you usually see.

Never get tired of the jets. We love them. And sometimes there are foreign jets that come in for training.

Quote HistoryQuoted: That's the sound of Freedom! FREEDOM BONER! I would check out the military aviation museum if you can Go to bay local for brunch There is a place at townecenter called apex entertainment. Think Dave and busters on roids Big sams around the corner from you bass a decent breakfast for the price . Super high class and expensive? Check out oriens roof and the distillery across the street in the cavalier Couple of breweries are close to you. Also, get fish tacos from gringos on Norfolk ave . Drive across the bay bridge tunnel because you can Walk around first landing state park and check out the cape Henry lighthouse |

We just moved to the Stafford area from WI last fall, but we spent anywhere from 6-8 weeks a year in the Hampton Roads area visiting family for at least the last 10 years, and I never got tired of the jets myself. I always stop to look up and check them out every time. |
