It seemed to take forever this year, but spring has finally arrived. Warm weather and bright days can only mean one thing: beach season is coming. So, in between downing celery sticks and logging major treadmill time to be bathing suit ready, it's time to plan a seaside escape. This year, instead of staying at the same condo that hasn't seen an interior designer since the days of disco, think about staying at an even more historic locale.

The beautiful coastal city of Virginia Beach has a lot to offer families and solo travelers: beautiful coastline, great food, and exciting things to do. However, finding the perfect place to stay while you're visiting can be difficult. When hotels are unavailable or simply not sufficient, many turn to Virginia Beach condos.

Some of the best eats in Virginia Beach are known to the locals by the powerful use of "word of mouth." But visitors often must resort to locals and other travelers writing online reviews to discover some of the best Virginia Beach restaurants.

AOL Travel shares a few of these restaurants with you today.

Virginia Beach offers up some of the best beaches in the United States. Surfers, vacationers, and locals enjoy Virginia Beach year round. But when summer arrives, things can get a bit pricy. That's why AOL Travel offers up some tips for folks planning on seeing Virginia Beach on a budget.
