Beach Closures Near Old Lighthouse | Virginia Beach News

Cape Hatteras National Seashore is closing a 300-foot stretch of beach near the old lighthouse site starting August 3rd for critical coastal restoration work. The project includes repairing a groin and jetty to slow erosion and support ongoing beach nourishment efforts, helping rebuild sand and protect Highway 12 — the lifeline for the Outer Banks community. Work is expected to wrap by mid-to-late September, so visitors should head to Old Lighthouse Beach instead. Respect the closures — trespassing could delay vital repairs.
