Yorktown Beach
Drop anchor off this two-acre sandy beach on the York River, right in the heart of Historic Yorktown — where you can swim, fish, or just soak up the sun with a front-row view of the river and the Yorktown Bridge. It's a surprisingly laid-back spot given how historically loaded the surrounding area is, with Yorktown's Revolutionary War sites and waterfront just a short walk away.
