You will have to use the beach from 11th Bay and down to enjoy the beach.

The Neighborhood:
Tucked between the Chesapeake Bay and Willoughby Bay, Willoughby Spit is a quiet, quirky peninsula in Norfolk with a charm all its own. This relaxed waterfront community is known for its stretch of uncrowded, sandy beaches, where locals and visitors alike stroll with coffee at sunrise and gather for golden-hour swims. You’ll find a mix of classic beach cottages, salty shacks, and new builds, all steps from the shore. Willoughby locals are fiercely loyal to their slice of coastal life — where crab traps are common yard décor, beach chairs stay out year-round, and everyone knows the best spot for a fried shrimp basket (hint: it’s probably across the street at the Willoughby Fish House).

Life here moves with the tide: morning walks on 13th View Beach, paddle boarding through the calm bay waters, casting a line off Harrison's Fishing Pier, or biking to Ocean View’s farmer’s market. Evenings often end with toes in the sand, a drink in hand, and the sight of Navy ships gliding toward the horizon. Staying in Willoughby Spit means trading traffic for sea breezes, and schedules for sunsets — a true locals’ beach escape that still feels undiscovered.

Getting Around:
Easy access to I-64, Hampton Roads Transit, close to marinas and scenic routes ideal for biking or boating

Local Gems:

- Willoughby Spit Beach: Quiet sands and calm bay waters, perfect for locals

- COVA Brewing Company: A laid-back spot for coffee by day, beer by night

- Ocean View Fishing Pier: Catch dinner or just enjoy the view over open water
