2022 Map of Cape Henry

About this map

Cape Henry stands as a pivotal coastal landmark where the Chesapeake Bay meets the Atlantic Ocean. This map illustrates the highly complex shoreline of Virginia Beach, characterized by an intricate network of waterways including Lynnhaven Bay, Broad Bay, and Linkhorn Bay. The massive engineering of the Chesapeake Bay Bridge-Tunnel is clearly visible, spanning the water via the North Thimble Island and South Thimble Island transitions. Inland, the map reveals a dense pattern of established residential communities such as Thoroughgood, Alanton, and Cape Story by the Sea. These neighborhoods are often defined by their relationship to the water, with developments like Great Neck Estates and Bay Island positioned along the numerous coves and drains that penetrate the peninsula, while Bayville Park offers significant recreational space amidst the suburban growth.
