NEWS: MAY 22: Virginia Beach opens for swimmers, sunbathers and surfers Memorial Day weekend.
VIRGINIA BEACH, VA - MAY 22: A lifeguard settles in near Virginia Beach Fishing Pier to kick off Memorial Day weekend. Because of a recent tropical storm, the ocean is unsafe for swimmers as indicated by the red flags on Memorial Day weekend on May 22, 2020, in Virginia Beach, VA. This is the first day of the beach's reopening for swimming, sunbathing, and limited recreational activity. If all goes well with Virginia's Phase 1 reopening pilot program, beaches may follow similar guidelines for reopening during the Coronavirus (COVID-19) pandemic.
