Virginia's Coastal Zone

"Virginia's coastal zone includes 5,000 miles of shoreline, four tidal rivers reaching as far as 100 miles inland, the Chesapeake Bay and Albemarle - Pamlico Sound watersheds, and the Atlantic Ocean coastline. Natural and cultural features range widely - from the wild, undeveloped beaches of the barrier islands to the "hard" shoreline of Hampton Roads' port facilities." - excerpt from this Surfrider Foundation State of the Beach web page.
