One of the Best Spots in the Seven Cities

June 23, 2016
Tidewater Yacht Marina

AltDaily | June 1, 2016 By Jacqui Riffe

It’s a mixture of good dining, unique activities, and if you really warm up to us, a variety of upscale housing, all set on the backdrop of the Elizabeth River. Here’s a local’s guide on fun, food and where to hang your hat at the end of the day.

What To Do

There’s a lot going on in Downtown Portsmouth. Don’t believe me? Come see it all for yourself. Soon you’ll be lost amongst the theaters, museums, art and music. Downtown P-Town has a little bit of it all.

Where To Eat

Where To Live

You like us! You really like us! If you want to stick around after your fun and food, there are plenty of places to call yours at the end of the day. Everything from waterfront abodes to rustic pads, Downtown Portsmouth can be your home, sweet home.
