(Virginia Beach, Va.– There’s something about this place – a sparkle, an indigenous vibe. It unearths itself each spring with every plump and juicy Pungo strawberry. It hides within the mystery of your dreams. It soars high above the clouds and plummets beneath the depths of the sea. It is the beach life. A life that beckons with great force, unfolding the thrill of discovery and the promise of unforgettable adventures along the way. And it’s right here in Virginia Beach with the resort city’s newest travel program, “Live the Life Adventures.”

Geared toward group travelers, “Live the Life Adventures” features a series of experiential themed programs that uniquely showcase the people and places shapingVirginia Beach and its cuisine, outdoor activities, military history and performing arts. “Live the Life Adventures” feature the best of what makes this place unlike any other, and reveals it all through hands-on, interactive involvement. With itineraries leading the way through a range of interest-specific activities, each Adventure satisfies the curious and allows groups to be really involved – and rewarded.

Presented in six themes – Body/Mind/Spirit, Arts & Culture, Outdoor, Military, History and Culinary/Agriculture – these experiences focus on the everyday treasures the resort city offers – from the beauty and intrigue of the state parks and the succulent flavors of Coastal Cuisine to military aviation and the performing arts. Each experience ranges from a 30 minute to 2 ½ hour tour and is designed for five to 100 participants.

Revel in the stories of life at sea as you shop for the day’s freshest catch. Participate in an interactive session with a holistic health expert. See what it’s like on the other side of the curtain as you step backstage and on-set with the Virginia Musical Theater. 

Step nose to nose with a hungry Komodo dragon or go behind the scenes of a real-life sea turtle exhibit. Visit a family-run farm and embrace the beauty of the sprawling land that surrounds you. And allow yourself to be transported back in time to the days of swing music and World War II heroes as Rosie the Riveter guides you through one of the most fascinating displays of military aircraft.
