Visitor Reviews
Croatan Beach is in a beautiful residential neighborhood in Virginia Beach. Croatan Beach is a beautiful coastal destination on Atlantic Avenue. Croatan Beach has the most pristine views and shorelines of all beaches in Virginia Beach. Croatan Beach is near Rudee Inlet and Camp Pendleton. There is a public parking lot with beach access on the south end of Croatan. The parking lot is a little distance from the beach. The beach is open to dogs before 10 a.m. and after 6 p.m. Surfers, paddler boarders, and boogie boarders love this beach 🌊🏄🏽♀️🏄♂️ 🏄🏽❣️I enjoy this quiet hidden gem.🏖️🐕
Wonderful time being here for Sunrise!! Place is clean and walkable from nearby street!! Tides are great as well!!
This was the cleanest beach we went to while in the area. Soft sand, clean water, lots of shells. Very few people. Shower station and restrooms. Lifeguard on duty. 7.00 parking which beats Virginia Beach.
I came here last night which was very cold and dark on a long walk. It's a really nice beach and coming here at night is a different kind of feeling. Got some great shots which thanks to my phone, made the dark night sky much brighter. I haven't visited during the day, but I certainly intend to!
Great beach with so many different views, Surfs up at this spot, Clean bathrooms and plenty of room for parking.
