Guidebook for Virginia Beach
Food Scene
Baja Coffee is a summer morning edition to Baja Restaurant. Great coffee, smoothies, acai bowls, cinnamon rolls, breakfast burritos and early cocktails. Try the Watermens blend (my pick) and the cinnamon roll (my daughter).
In the evening you get great views, good food, wonderful people and cold drinks. Plus live music and kids are welcome to run around and you can pull up in your boat.

Arts & Culture
Did you vacation in Va. Beach to go to an art museum? Probably not, but, MOCA is worth the trip. Great art displays and installations every time I have been there.

Everything Else
Please, just go to the beach and relax. Turn off your phone and stare out at the ocean and take in the horizon. After a day of salt air, head to Back Bay and watch the sunset. This is my recipe for a clear head.
