Widewater State Park
Virginia State Park

One of the newest Virginia state parks, Widewater is located on a peninsula where Aquia Creek and the Potomac River meet. Widewater provides access to both bodies of water. The park lies on non-contiguous parcels surrounded by private property. Two parcels are open for access. The park has a visitor center, picnic shelters, playgrounds, restrooms, canoe-kayak launches and a hiking trail. In 2025, the park's boat ramp was closed due to siltation; normally, the fee for launching is $10 per boat. The park highlights the area's natural, historic and recreational resources.
