Sandbridge Beach: The Outer Banks of Virginia – Updated
The Outer Banks are stretches of peninsulas and barrier islands that run 200 miles along the coast of North Carolina and Virginia. The Outer Banks strand actually begins in Virginia with the 4.5-mile long Sandbridge Beach. Because Sandbridge Beach is backed by Currituck Sound to the west and the Atlantic Ocean to the east, its geography is similar to that of the North Carolina Outer Banks. That similarity (and also cultural similarities) have earned Sandbridge Beach the nickname “The Outer Banks of Virginia.” Sandbridge Beach is a must-see for those who love the remote, untamed, and relaxed atmosphere of North Carolina’s Outer Banks.

Dog day – Memory Monday 10/8/18
Each Monday we work to share a photo memory with you which comes from one of our guests that stayed with us, and today we share with you yet another photo of some four legged friends that enjoyed a stay recently with Sandbridge Blue. This photo comes to us from Jessica Niehaus of Columbus, Ohio who stayed with us just a couple of weeks ago with her two furry family members
We promise that we don’t have dogs all over the beach, but it is amazing about how many dog pictures we get sent to us for our Memory Monday photo contest. It just goes to show that dogs really enjoy a beach vacation as well as their humans do!
We have properties that accept pets, as well as houses that don’t, and we have some great options available if you want to take advantage of the remarkable weather that we’ve been having lately. All of our properties have great wi-fi so you can keep up with your e-mail while you enjoy our little slice of heaven so why not consider a little beach time before the real fall weather arrives?
We would love to help you arrange a getaway. When you come don’t forget to snap some pictures and send them to us so we can post them here on Memory Monday and show everyone else what a great time you had. Deal?
All the best from the beach!
Treasures on the beach – Memory Monday 6/18/18
This week’s Memory Monday photo submission comes to us from Darlene Londeree of Richmond who stayed with us recently and enjoyed a wide open beach with great nephew as they discovered treasures on the beach together.
We will let Darlene explain in her own words “One of my favorite activities was spending time with my great nephew who loves learning about all God’s creatures from reptiles, mammals, insects, birds, you name it! He is only five years old and absorbs all the new knowledge like a sponge. We had a blast catching sand fleas, sifting through living creatures in the surf, chasing sandpipers, and digging for sandfiddlers. When asked if he would rather go back to the pool or stay on the beach. The beach is where he preferred to be. ”
We love finding ocean treasures and you can tell by the smiles on their faces that Darlene and her great nephew they feel the same.
We thank Darlene for sharing her photo memory and we look forward to a great day at the beach today. If you have not made plans to come and find your own treasures keep in mind that we do have select availability on some of our properties later in the summer. We at Sandbridge Blue look forward to serving Darlene and her great nephew again soon, and we look forward to serving you too.
All the best from the beach!
