Cape Henry Memorial is part of the Colonial National Historical Park, which also includes Jamestown, the site of the first permanent English settlement in 1607, and Yorktown, where the last decisive battle of the American Revolutionary War took place in 1781. Together these sites present the full history of the park. Yorktown is about an hour's drive from Cape Henry, and Jamestown can then be reached by the 23-mile Colonial Parkway. Cape Henry Memorial is administered by the National Park Service, U.S. Department of the Interior.
