    Willoughby sits on a narrow peninsula between the Chesapeake Bay and the Elizabeth River, giving the Norfolk neighborhood a coastal setting, bay breezes and weather shaped by the Atlantic hurricane season. Willoughby Spit and its public beach access offer places to walk by the water, while nearby trails and open spaces make outdoor time part of the local routine. The area is known for its maritime history and views of shipping activity near the mouth of the bay. Dining and coffee options are more limited within the residential peninsula, with additional shopping and restaurants elsewhere in Norfolk. A car is useful for many errands; Hampton Roads Transit bus service connects the area to other parts of the city. Willoughby neighborhood rental data, based on 51 active listings, shows a median rent of $1,662 per month and a typical range of $925 to $6,544.
