Cape Henry Village and the northern residential reaches of Virginia Beach occupy the narrow coastal strip where the Atlantic Ocean meets the entrance to the Chesapeake Bay. This 2010 survey illustrates the transition from the maritime shipping lanes of the Chesapeake Bay Entrance and Cape Henry Channel to the densely developed neighborhoods of North Virginia Beach and Cavalier Park. Inland waterways like Crystal Lake and Rainey Gut punctuate the landscape, reflecting the area's intricate coastal geography. The presence of the Four H Camp and residential enclaves like North Linkhorn Park highlights the balance between community development and the prominent maritime environment of the mid-Atlantic coast at the beginning of the decade.
