The Funk Fest is set up right on the beach and General Admission is Free, so it brings out crowds of people. It took us over an hour to find parking and the traffic was ridiculous, that's the one downside going to Oceanfront events. Once we found parking, we grabbed our lawn chairs and walked to the beach. It was packed with people so we know once we found a seat, we didn't move lol. There were a few food vendors out there, most of them were selling seafood and wings, so my daughter ordered some Hot Honey Wings and a Crab Cake and it was absolutely amazing. We sat near one of the jumbo screens so we could see the artists and we had the best time. Cameo performed last but they did not disappoint. My daughter and I thoroughly enjoyed ourselves and we will definitely be back next year!

All the reviews (during normal (pre-covid19) life, of course) were positive about parking and it being quiet, but we drove all the way to the end near the Ft Story gate before we even saw the first parking spot. It was insane how many people were there! We had to kind of squeeze into a spot on the beach with people to our right and left, crazy! But, honestly, it didn't matter! Other than being inconvenient, the whole experience was great. There were waves, unlike in the bay, and a gentle slope of sand into the water, so it was more safe for my son. The sand was nice, the people were nice, it was just great all around. Also, one of my favorite parts of this area is how close it is to the channel that goes by... so you get to see tons of ships and boats go by. It was like watching a water highway, loved it!

Little Island Park is a fantastic beach park with soft sand, clear water that's calm and easy to…read moreswim in, and plenty of amenities that make it a great place to spend the day. The park regularly hosts free concerts and community events, creating a fun atmosphere. There are two large, clean, and well-maintained restroom buildings, along with numerous picnic tables and a couple of grills, making it an excellent spot for a beach cookout or family gathering. Every time I've visited, there has been an ice cream truck parked nearby, and on other occasions I've also seen food trucks offering additional options. There's a small but very nice playground for children, and a sandy boardwalk that leads out toward the beach with beautiful ocean views. One thing I really appreciated was how many restrooms are available throughout the park, so you're never far from one. I also noticed brand-new tennis courts and basketball hoops. The basketball courts are adjacent to the large parking lot, but the lot is so spacious that it never feels crowded. In fact, every time I've come here, there have been hundreds of parking spaces available, making parking incredibly easy. One especially thoughtful feature is the electronic sign at the park entrance, which tells you exactly how many parking spaces are available before you even drive in. Overall, Little Island Park is a clean, well-maintained beach park with excellent facilities, beautiful scenery, and plenty to do, making it one of the best beach parks in the area.

My favorite was the "Neptune Festival" which was around Labor Day and signified the locals "taking the beach back" from the tourists! I do like the Neptune statue on the beach! I took some free yoga classed offered on the beach, enjoyed watching professional sand sculpture competitions, professional beach volleyball tournaments, and much more! I could have sworn the boardwalk was wooden back then. Regardless if it was wooden or concrete, the boardwalk would open for vehicles every Christmas to enjoy the Christmas lights on the beach! That was always a fun time and Virginia Beach does a great job with this lighting display! It's a must see! We enjoyed rollerblading, bike riding, jogging, and walking along the beach and boardwalk. Why no fifth star? The Atlantic water is ice cold! I did enjoy the beach itself, despite the sand not being as brightly white colored as I'm accustomed to at Orange Beach, Alabama. However, I did not enjoy the ice cold water! Also, during peak tourist season, the beach gets super crowded!

Parking is plentiful and free. The City of Virginia Beach operates the beach and its guards. The beach is clean and wide. It's not as busy as the VBOF either. For surfing it's better than others with currents. Also a plus is its proximity to Back Bay Park. A drawback is that they do not have an infrastructure built up, but many consider this a plus since it's so natural. You can find a food truck on the road in for tacos named Bandino's. Come out and enjoy with warmer weather in the Spring. It's a family friendly beach, so bring the family and dog too! There are so many reasons why Virginia Beach residents feel as though they live in paradise.

People just walk around while going in and out of the beach sand. Bunch of restaurants and shops are nearby to grab food and drinks. The theater is used for scheduled special events.
