James City County named shores and waterfront references
These 4 references distinguish published beach guides from separate waterfront places and held shore questions. No park or launch implies swimming permission or a public route across neighboring land.
Use each authority for the exact route, permitted activity and current notices. A guide planning pin is approximate; references without a guide do not receive beach pins.
