| | | It was still around this past summer when I went down to Williamsburg and VA Beach. It is a really small park and I did not visit, but I did drive by it. I couldn't find anything on it until I went to VA Beach, they don't advertise too well. |

| | I just went to www.virginiabeach.com which is a tourism site and the first paragraph there describes rides on a boardwalk. Is this what you are looking for? I imagine that would be the place they would have the park if anywhere.

| | | My grandparents live a few blocks away, so I go there when I visit them. It's really nothing that great. They have no coasters, a mediocre log flume, some flat rides, kiddie rides etc. They also have a skyscraper, but it's really expensive to ride so I never did. I have ridden one before though, and I feel like it'd be worth it to ride this one. If I ever go there, I usualyl just do the bungee trampoline thing , do a few flips, and leave. |

| | | It's not a great place, the best thing there is the Skyscraper. I've rode it a bunch of times (usually after visiting the piercing parlor up the street).

| | | The only times that I would go to that park would be when my dad doesn't take me to PKD or BGW for that vacation. VA beach is still great, with some really cool deep sea fishing and Norfolk (10-20 minutes away) has some museums too. |

| | | -Goto BGW if you are staying in VA beach, def worth a day. Motorworld is kinda lame, no coasters and theres also the waterpark(ocean breeze) next to it(i think its next to it.) No one who lives around here goes there(ie me) thus i don't know much about it.
-Like 30 years ago there was a small little amusement park at the end of the boardwalk(location probably wrong).
-In case anyones interested, back when they started developing what is now Motorworld, they planned to make it into a BGW rivalry, however they ran into many problems with the military base(ie height restrictions) and then they sold off a good chunk of the land and gave up on that hope.
***i wouldn't put anything into these two things about history as i only have been told and have read about these two places, however goto BGW its great(went twice over spring break)

| | I haven't been to VA Beach in a few years, but I dont remember any amusement park, only the rides on the board walk which were really no more than carnival rides. I remember seeing a waterpark, but had never been to it. They're right though..BGW is a GREAT park! I will be heading to Williamsburg May 5-9 and guess where i will be going??
