JT’s Grommet Island Beach Park & Playground for Every BODY

Project Overview

JT’s Grommet Island Beach Park in Virginia Beach is an inclusive, ocean-themed playground designed to welcome children and families of all abilities. With extensive ramping and accessible play features like the Sway Fun® glider, Sensory Play Center®, and a large sandbox, the playground encourages motion, sensory discovery, and imaginative beachside play. Safety and accessibility are enhanced with Surface America’s PlayBound™ Poured-in-Place surfacing, creating a smooth, durable, and colorful foundation that ties the theme together while ensuring all children can participate. As one of the first fully accessible beach playgrounds in the U.S., JT’s Grommet Island stands as a destination where design, inclusivity, and community meet.
