Nearby, you can see where the sunken hulls of antique warships molder in their final resting place. There's a sense of serenity here. This area is significant because it's where "Stafford's recorded history began" as 400 years ago, Capt. John Smith and his crew paddled up Aquia Creek as far as the water depth would allow, making contact with local American Indians. And long before the first European set foot on the peninsula, Indian tribes flourished at Widewater and the surrounding area. The first attempt to fly by Samuel P. Langley in the early 1900s, before the Wright Brothers, took place off Widewater Peninsula. Walking distance to Virginia's Newest State Park, Widewater Park, located on the Widewater peninsula where Aquia Creek and Potomac River meet, Widewater provides access to both bodies of water. The park has a visitor center, picnic shelters, playgrounds, restrooms, canoe-kayak launches & hiking trail. The park will highlight the area's natural, historic & recreational resources. Located near Quantico Marine Corp Base, Widewater is about 43 miles south of Capital Beltway & 55 miles north of Richmond on I-95. Reagan National Airport is a 45-minute drive & Dulles and Richmond international airports are an hour away. Virginia Railway Express operates weekday commuter service from stations in Brooke & Quantico to Washington's Union Station.
