known just as much for our oceanfront and boardwalk, as we are for our flourishing local dining scene, arts and entertainment, maritime history, and family friendly attractions. Our city features many unique districts that offer experiences for everyone to enjoy, and we take advantage of them every chance we get. From brunch cruises on the Spirit of Norfolk, to spending the evening at a family arcade, our hospital is truly like a family.
