Welcome to Tidewater & Hampton Roads

Often considered the birthplace of America, Virginia’s Tidewater and Hampton Roads region is where it all began! Tour the Historic Triangle, consisting of Historic Jamestowne, America’s first permanent English settlement, the preserved 18th-century Colonial Williamsburg and Yorktown, site of the battle that effectively ended the American Revolutionary War. Then, feel like you’re in the navy in nearby Norfolk! Home to Naval Station Norfolk, the base of the United States Navy, explore Nauticus, a maritime science museum. Don’t miss the hulking battleship, USS Wisconsin. Finally, hit the waves of Virginia Beach! With 28 miles of spectacular beaches and an even more impressive boardwalk, you won’t want to leave your Tidewater and Hampton Roads vacation!
