Elizabeth River, has one of the most active boat ramps in the Hampton
Roads area.
Boaters are able to enjoy easy access to the Elizabeth River.
Adjacent to the park is the scenic South Norfolk Jordan Bridge. This bridge is truly an engineering marvel, spanning the distance between Chesapeake and Portsmouth at a maximum height of 160 feet that allows for huge ships to pass under it. * Elizabeth River Park Fun Facts and Information
