This is East Beach

The 2011 Coastal Living Ultimate Beach House is in East Beach -- a waterfront community in Norfolk, Virginia designed and built in the tradition of Atlantic Coastal villages.

East Beach is very well located: - just a 10 minute drive from Norfolk International Airport, and a 20 minute drive to downtown Norfolk, the major employment centers and military bases. The community is right on the Chesapeake Bay where the Bay meets the Atlantic Ocean. In just ten minutes you can walk from the beach at the north end of the community to your boat at the deep water marinas at the south end of the community.
