Virginia is rock-solid proof that a family vacation can be both educational and fun. Millions of visitors flock to the "mother
state" every year to learn about America's rich colonial history; take advantage of the mild climate and the many activities
it affords; and spread out along vast stretches of beautiful Atlantic Coastline.
Colonial Williamsburg
Step into the past and see how America began. Visit some of the many structures from the colonial period reconstructed on
their original sites. Authentic colonial homes, a town jail (with authentic stocks), taverns, and shops are among the buildings
you can view here.
Want to take on a more active role? You can. "The Revolutionary City" is a daily, two-hour event where you can play a role
in the shaping of a new America. But history isn't the only attraction. Nearby Busch Gardens offers modern thrill rides for
the whole family. Plus, Virginia Beach is only about an hour's drive away.
Virginia Beach
The No. 1 reason to come to Virginia Beach is, of course, the beach. Here you'll find miles and miles of beautiful white sand,
thanks in part to past sand replenishment and hurricane protection efforts (3.5 million cubic yards of sand were added to
Virginia Beach alone).
Then, when you add an energetic boardwalk, parasailing, and a wide range of other water sports activities, you have a coastal
showplace that everyone will enjoy.
