5 Gorgeous Beaches In West Virginia That You Must Check Out This Summer
You may think I’m joking, but West Virginia has some beautiful beaches. Sure, we’re landlocked, and the closest ocean vacations are in Virginia and North Carolina, but West Virginia’s lakes and rivers offer some great beaches, too. Here are a few favorites.
The Battle Run area of Summersville Lake has a great beach.
If you're visiting this lake in Braxton and Webster counties, check out Bee Run Beach.
Jennings Randolph Lake is located in Mineral County, W.Va. and Garrett County, Maryland. If you visit, check out Shaw Beach.
The beach area at Tygart Lake State Park had been closed for six years, but reopened in 2014. It has a renovated bathhouse and picnic area, gift shop and hourseshoe and Bocce ball courts. There are also kayaks for rent.
There's a nice beach at Shavers Fork in the Stuart Recreation Area of the Monongahela National Forest.
These are just a few of the beautiful beaches along West Virginia’s lakes and rivers. How many have you been to? Which ones did I miss?
