Explore
The quaint river town of West Point and the picturesque rural landscape of King William County provide the perfect getaway from the hustle and bustle of your everyday routine.
Nestled between the picturesque Pamunkey and Mattaponi Rivers, you'll find history, tradition, culture, wildlife, and a scenic landscape in King William County.
At the confluence of these two rivers, you'll find the Town of West Point, which offers breathtaking views of the York River, along with a historic downtown shopping and dining district, beautiful Victorian homes along tree-lined streets, lively events for all ages, and some of the best local seafood in Virginia. West Point is home of the West Point Crab Carnival, one of Virginia's longest-running and most popular fall festivals, and is the first point of salt water heading east from Central Virginia.
