The ultimate family beach destination, Hampton has been luring kids of all ages for decades with its potent blend of honky-tonk amusements, fried seafood and active waves. The long, wide beach provides plenty of elbowroom for stretching out — and is surprisingly clean for all of the activity it receives during summer. But it’s the swirl of activities around it that is apt to draw in your young ones, including video arcades, penny-candy counters and beach toy stores, not to mention all of the people watching you could ask for. You won’t necessarily find relaxation here, but you can guarantee everyone will go home happily exhausted.
