After compiling an appropriate list of beach criteria from established award programs and experts, the research landscape architect observed the Virginia Beach Resort Zone for areas of intense beach user activity. The resulting analysis of these "hot-spots" indicated that urban resort beach users visiting the recreational beach during high-use times tended to gravitate toward locations on the resort beach which were close to three needs: public parking, public restrooms, and inexpensive refreshments. This pattern shows the apparent preferences of many beach users for certain amenities. / Master of Landscape Architecture
