Be sure to have plenty of gas in the tank, because Virginia Beach is well worth a detour. Located 30 miles from Cheriton, it offers some wonderful attractions, such as Ocean Breeze Waterpark and Virginia Aquarium and Marine Science Center. Get ready to rack up those miles, because Virginia Living Museum and Mariner’s Museum are also a rewarding day trip. You’ll find these fine sights in Newport News, 30 miles away.
