Shopping 'til we Drop in Colonial Beach

So many options and shopping opportunities here in Colonial Beach! Take the Trolley or arrange for transit bus service, or just bike, take a golf cart or walk to any of the many great stores in the area.

Two new shops are coming to the Boardwalk soon. The two-story building with shops on the bottom and apartments up top is under construction between the Beach Shop and the restroom building. Stay tuned here for details and Grand Opening dates!
