Norfolk, as well as being an old seaport, is one of the East Coast’s busiest international commercial ports. Its neighbouring city of Portsmouth houses one of the US Navy’s major shipyards. The city also forms a key waystation on the Intracoastal Waterway.

There are a huge number of mooring options in and around Norfolk, Portsmouth, Newport News and Hampton, as well as in the rivers feeding into this southern end of Chesapeake Bay.
