A collection of tent sites tucked off in its own little corner, Loop A of the campground at super-popular First Landing State Park has the advantage of being somewhat isolated from the rest of the camp.

If you’re not a social butterfly, if you’re worried about noise level, or if you’re planning on slipping out of the campground a lot to get in some hiking or Virginia Beach action, this is a bonus in itself. Sure, it’s a little further from boating-and-swimming-friendly Chesapeake Bay than some of the other loops, but that’s just a pleasant stroll.

This park is in the city of Virginia Beach, so it's pretty busy, but it is a great way to explore this resort town without shelling out for a hotel.
