Kiptopeke State Park

Where the Chesapeake Bay meets Virginia's Eastern Shore, Kiptopeke State Park Campground stands out as a haven for waterfront relaxation, diverse accommodations, and outdoor recreation. Its prime location offers direct access to sandy beaches, a lighted fishing pier, and over five miles of scenic trails, which cater to campers seeking a blend of leisure and active exploration.

This campground provides a variety of site options, including tent sites, RV spots with hookups, yurts, and even six-bedroom lodges, making it suitable for everything from quiet getaways to large family gatherings. Amenities like clean bathhouses, a camp store, and a boat ramp enhance convenience, while features such as a dog-friendly beach and seasonal interpretive programs highlight the park's unique appeal. Despite being a popular destination, the wooded areas of the campground ensure an element of privacy for guests.

Located just three miles from the Chesapeake Bay Bridge-Tunnel and minutes from charming Cape Charles, the park is ideally positioned for day trips to local restaurants or visits to the Eastern Shore of Virginia National Wildlife Refuge. Kiptopeke's coastal setting, combined with opportunities for kayaking, birdwatching along the Atlantic flyway, and panoramic bay views, makes it a standout choice for nature lovers and outdoor enthusiasts alike.
