This is a veritable fairyland for fishermen, boaters and such assorted interests. It also has…read moreclothing in the north section of the large store that was a Be-Lo Supermarket when I first moved to Virginia Beach decades ago. The spacious counter is conveniently located in the center of the store. It's staffed with a plentiful number of knowledgeable employees who are both friendly & helpful. Our quest for the day was for a Norfolk City Permit for my sister's new kayak. Although the Lake Smith/Lake Lawson Natural Area is in & maintained by Virginia Beach, the waterway winding through it is owned by Norfolk & requires a permit. It's far more convenient than applying for one on line & having to wait for the stickers to come. The second purchase was to buy a new CG approved life jacket since my friend in CG reserves told me they were monitoring kayakers after recent accidents. Her previous use of my life jackets from the boat I sold was to use them as back rests. No can do anymore!! They had a supply but none that fit my sister. So we left with only the City of Norfolk boat (kayak) license & sticker. It's a convenient & a valuable resource for us to be able to obtain the permit quickly and close. The same can also be said for fishermen & those who frequent the nearby waterways, inlets & the Chesapeake Bay.

The location is very easy to get to from the Norfolk area. They have parking available but be very careful where you park. They do tow and they have signs displayed everywhere. You can also ride the ferry at this location on high street which is about a block away. There is a small fee for riding on the ferry. They accept cash only. The yacht we were on was so lovely. Had everything you could possibly need to stay overnight. Or longer. You get a chance to see all the boats docked nearby and the water was very calm. Would definitely enjoy returning if invited. I hope to be invited again real soon.

Worth every last cent. This was an amazing experience. Caught a ton of marlin even though all the…read moreboats around us were hardly catching anything. I think one of the things I appreciated the most was the crew themselves. They fish all the time, catch anything and everything, yet you can tell that those gentlemen truly love fishing in its entirety. They show true enthusiasm for you while you fish and catch. Fishing just never gets old with them, and they'll definitely put you first and make every time out a special one. When we got back to the docks tons of people were gawking at the boat with all of the flags we were flying. If you want to fish, Rebel Sportfishing is THE best choice. The captain is a fish whisperer, I swear by it.
