Those that like the outdoors will have their fill of fishing and watersports. You can find exhilarating skiing and hiking in Appalachia and beach getaways to Virginia Beach and the Outer Banks within a two-hour drive. History abounds in the colonial area of Williamsburg and the National Parks at Yorktown Battlefield (site of the British surrender to conclude the war for Independence) and Jamestown Settlement (site of the first settlement in the United States). The state’s capital, Richmond, and Norfolk both provide big city amenities like concerts, shows, and international airports within an hour.
