Top Waterfront Neighborhoods in Virginia Beach for Boaters
Virginia Beach has some of the most amazing waterfront in the Mid - Atlantic region. We are blessed to have lakes, rivers, the Chesapeake Bay and Atlantic Ocean all within our city. Boating is a big draw for our area and whether you are an avid fisherman or just a recreational boater, this area will not leave you disappointed. With a mild climate you can plan on being on the water for more than half of the year. If you are a diehard fisherman, you can easily fish year round here and enjoy the fishing that each season brings. Finding the right neighborhood for your waterfront home is important. Most waterfront communities require dredging in order to access the deeper bodies of water. Some neighborhoods are more proactive than others so we can help direct you to the right neighborhood for your boat. Here is a list of some of our favorite waterfront and boating friendly neighborhoods.
Waterfront Homes for Sale in Baycliff & Alanton
Both Alanton and Baycliff have deeded boat ramps for residents of the community. This is an added convenience if you ever need to pull your boat out of the water. In addition to that they are located adjacent to two of the more popular boating areas in Virginia Beach. Broad Bay and the Narrows. The Narrows is a state park beach that boaters lover to pull up to and enjoy swimming and hanging out during the warmer months. Broad Bay is a wide body of water that makes for great waterskiing and tubing as well as great fishing for Puppy Drum and Speckled Trout. Baycliff just finished a dredging project that provides Deepwater access at all tides. This was self funded through the neighborhood so there was not special tax created by the city to pay for the dredging. This is a real benefit to anyone looking to buy in this neighborhood.
