Welcome to Dunkirk

Dunkirk Norfolk is a small town located in the northeastern part of the state of Virginia. It is situated in the heart of the Great Dismal Swamp, which is a vast wetland area that covers over 100,000 acres. The town is known for its natural beauty and is a popular destination for outdoor enthusiasts who enjoy hiking, fishing, and birdwatching.

One of the main attractions in Dunkirk Norfolk is the Great Dismal Swamp National Wildlife Refuge. This refuge is home to a wide variety of wildlife, including black bears, bobcats, and bald eagles. Visitors can explore the refuge on foot or by boat, and there are several hiking trails and waterways to choose from. The refuge also offers educational programs and guided tours for those who want to learn more about the area's natural history.

In addition to its natural beauty, Dunkirk Norfolk is also home to several historic sites and landmarks. One of the most notable is the Dismal Swamp Canal, which was built in the early 19th century and played a significant role in the region's economic development. Today, visitors can take a boat tour of the canal and learn about its history and importance to the area. Other historic sites in Dunkirk Norfolk include the Cedar Grove Cemetery and the Norfolk and Western Railroad Museum.
