Virginia Beach's Hidden Jewel

Munden Point Park is a little secret tucked away in the southern part of the city, just right on The North Landing River. It's 100-acrea area that was once a hunting site for waterfowl. The waterway meanders through low swampy woodlands, tall pine trees and salt marshes. It is a prime spot for kayaks and canoes, which could be rented for as low as $6 an hour. Munden has over 300 bird species, including one of largest blue heron rookery in Virginia. Fishing is also permitted in the park. The park also features picnic shelters, baseball fields, playgrounds, horseshoe pits, volleyball courts and hiking trails. Admission is free. Out of everywhere I have been in the area this is the most peaceful and serene place. If you need to experience the best of nature this is the place.
