With August just around the corner, now's the time to evaluate your summer bucket list and make sure you've taken full advantage of the season. If you're in need of inspiration, look no further than the following photographs of Virginia's top secret beach. Though close in proximity to Virginia Beach, Sandbridge offers a much more secluded coastal experience without the crowds. Here's more on why you should plan your visit to this picture-perfect stretch of shoreline.
Just 25 miles south of Virginia Beach, Sandbridge is located near the pristine Back Bay National Wildlife Refuge.
While Sandbridge is certainly not "top secret" to locals and long-time Virginia beach-combers, this stretch of shoreline is the perfect place to escape crowds.
The beach is technically a part of the Outer Banks, a little-known fact made apparent when you notice its perfect seclusion.
For a truly breathtaking experience, head to Sandbridge early in the morning and watch as the sky erupts in splendid sunrise colors.
You'll find the shore itself is pristine, with inviting waves and plenty of room for beach games, walks, or lounging.
You won't find much in the town of Sandbridge apart from its beach, rental houses, a few kayaking outfitters and some restaurants. And that's what makes it such a gem.
If five miles of sand, waves, and ocean air is what you're after, Sandbridge will be a perfect end-of-summer destination.
Pack a picnic, bring your loved ones, and enjoy a much-needed day trip to one of Virginia's most gorgeous beaches.
