in the Mid-Atlantic is the perfect setting for group adventures, on both land and sea. With the Elizabeth River and Chesapeake Bay running along its west and north borders, it is no surprise that Norfolk is home to a wide array of water sports and boating excursions. Sailing the Elizabeth River, whether by private or public boat, sailboat or yacht, Norfolk’s Elizabeth River offers spectacular downtown views. Multiple river cruises are easily accessible from downtown Norfolk’s Town Point Park, conveniently located within walking distance of many area hotels.
