Lynnhaven Inlet Fishing Pier was Family Owned and Operated from 1956 to 2017. It is considered by long-time residents to have been a local landmark. The completely wooden sport fishing pier was located on the beautiful Chesapeake Bay, in Virginia Beach, off Starfish Road. It was the longest all-wooden sport fishing pier on the East Coast, boasting approx.1480 ft. (1/4 mile) of lighted Pier for fishing, crabbing, and family enjoyment. The Pier provided a convenience store/tackle shop (including a full line of bait and tackle), benches, cleaning stations, and modern restroom facilities for your comfort. Lynnhaven Fishing Pier proudly served local residents, families, and tourists for 61 years.
Lynnhaven Fishing Pier closed permanently on 5 November 2017 at 8:00 PM EST. Expenses for routine maintenance, and storm damage repairs, simply became too great to continue to sustain the Mom N' Pop-Style business.
The Pier's owners, and employees, will miss their customers, and their community, as much as Lynnhaven Fishing Pier will be missed.
