Beach houses, wide Atlantic views and the natural beauty of Back Bay give Sandbridge its relaxed coastal character. Find beach access, local places and ideas for exploring Virginia Beach’s quieter southern shore.
Sandbridge is a coastal community in southern Virginia Beach, extending along Sandpiper Road between the Atlantic Ocean and Back Bay. It includes year-round residences, second homes, vacation rentals, public beach facilities, Little Island Park, and access toward Back Bay National Wildlife Refuge and False Cape State Park.
Public access, parking, lifeguard coverage, short-term-rental requirements, flood exposure, and property conditions vary by location and season. This page provides shared community context while directing users to official facility pages, individual properties, related places, businesses, and guides for details that can change.
Sandbridge has a different rhythm from the Oceanfront. The built environment includes older cottages, elevated coastal homes, condominiums, year-round residences, and short-term rentals, while the southern end transitions toward parkland and protected natural areas. Summer visitation can increase traffic, parking demand, rental turnover, and beach activity.
