Hello, My family and I are going down to Nags Head this April
and i would like to know where we could find the best clamming
spots. Also, we would like to know if there are any spots where
you could find sharks teeth. Any comments would help. Thanks! ~

We have been to OBX 3 yrs in a row and love it.
I was wondering if anyone can tell me if its legal to
have a small 50cc atv on the beaches of Southern Shores & Duck?
I have seen the "Beach Patrol" aka "turtle police" running up
and down the beaches on their 4 wheelers, but have never seen
any type of tag or registration plate. Just thought it would be
fun to bring the kids small atv to cruze up and down the beach
on. Any help or info would be great.
Thanks,
Shane

Heyy! im 17 and i have lived in the obx for my whole life and
honestly there isnt squat to do! im not trying to sike you out
but its true...The only thing really to do besides the beach is
like shopping and putput/movies. Your hotel should have
brochures that will interest you in tourist things like
kittyhawk stuff and other things like the history of nagshead.
Good luck be safe and remember have funn!!!!!!!!
also be careful of the boys dont always listen to them and
believe everything they sayy!!

I have been vacationing on the outer banks for almost 30
years. I just got back this week 05/16/2011 and let me tell you
it has changed. The Government has totally taken over and now
the people are not important. It is not a recreational area for
people. It is becoming a bird sanctuary the beaches are close to
people and vehicles. You can not even get to the point or Oregon
Inlet. I talked to was checked by the fish cops every time I
turned around and was also told you can not even walk on the
surf line if there is a fence in the area. I spend over $2000.00
a trip to the Outer Banks and in one week did not catch one
legal fish. Took a head boat out with 30 people and not one
legal fish was caught. Sorry but the Outer Banks are no longer a
fun place. I feel bad for the people that live there to see what
is going on here is another example of how the politicians can
destroy a way of life. Sorry but there are islands all the way
to Fla. Give the Birds one of those.

Hi, you probably have lots of answers by now - but I just wanted
to share that Kill Devil Hill or Nags Head have more things for
teenagers to do. Remember, that the Outer Banks are actually
several towns that are within miles of each other, so it will be
easy to get to a different "town". The most removed are the
north end which is Corolla, Duck, and Corova. The most southern
end has Avon, Salvo, Waves, Rodanthe, Hatteras. Anything in the
middle - which is Southern Shores, Kill Devil Hills, and Nags
Head is centrally located. Hope this helps. Hope you enjoy OBX!

As far as the crabbing goes we have had some luck at times on the bridge on the way back into Collington
Harbo. Its the right turn right after the Wright Memorial a couple miles back. Make sure that you are there while the
tide is moving in or out seems like the best time. When the tide ebs action
drops off. Last year caught about 2 dozen keepers in about two hours.
Good luck.

There are lots of things for kids to do. Best of all, they
don't have to have a computer or Gameboy! We live in the area in
Virginia and go to The Outer Banks frequently. The beach is
always a hit in itself. We give the kids jars with corks for
them to fill up with shells, "witches' purses", rocks, etc. they
find on the beach to bring home as a free souvenir. There are
amusement parks and miniature golf, movie theaters and such. The
Corolla Lighthouse will wear them out pretty good! You can climb
to the top. Very nice view. Your can also go to the northern
beaches and see the wild horses. The sand dune is pretty cool.
Great place for kids to run around. Good place to fly kites,
too. There is a ferry ride over to Ocracoke Island. Not much for
kids, really, on the island, but they might like the boat ride.
The older kids might like kayaking or surfing. The Wright
Brothers memorial has some kids stuff, too. Have fun!

it was a brief honeymoon that was cut short due to a prime job
interview that had been scheduled for the time we were supposed
to be away. Anyway, we convinced my parents to go to the OBX for
our annual vacay (forget camping when you can go here!) and they
would really like to take in a show at a Comedy Club. My husband
and I saw one advertised at the Ramada in KDH (if my memory is

Hello...I will be vacationing in the Frisco area in August with
my mother and sister. My sister and I both own Jeeps and we were
wondering if anyone knows of some off-road trails in the area. I
know driving on the beach is an option, but I was just
interested in seeing if there is something else available in the
area. If not, driving on the beach will be just as fun! Thank
you!

I'm 16 years old and this will be my 13th year visitng the outer
banks. I love the outerbanks and everything from the beach to
the lighthouses. The last time I went I wasn't a teenager yet,
and now I'm taking my 2 best guy friends with me, I really want
to entertain them so it wont be boring, I was just wondering if
there is anything cool to do down there for teenagers (ages
16-17) in November? I know you can't really swim because it is
way to cold. If anyone has any ideas please feelfreeto e-mail me
it would help me a lot. Thanks!

My family (6 adults) are planning a vacation sometime during 1-7
Sept 03. We hope to include in our trip some of the following in
the Outer Banks area: ocean fish (charter?), Sea Doo(we own), 4
wheel(we own but may wish to rent), kayak and other exciting
things (land, air or water). All information is welcome on
prices, best places, etc. If the trip extends overnight the
possibility of places allowing small dogs would be greatly
appreciated. Two individuals in the group are vegetarians.
Places to eat which can satisfy vegetarians, seafoods lovers and
meat and potatos men all in one would be a lifesaver. -Thanks

Almost four and a half years ago, I met a man, he was Tall
and Funny, Handsome and smart, and he liked the Grateful Dead.
Perfect I thought! And then he asked me if I wanted to take a
weekend trip to the Outerbanks... I thought, wait a minute I
just met you, but I went anyway. It was October, and the weather
was perfect. We spent 2 days driving up the coast, taking
ferry's to new islands, visiting the light houses. We stayed on
Okracoke , and ate at Howards Pub...man the crabs were awesome,
and they had a great Blues band. I fell in love with my husband
that weekend. The Outerbanks will always hold a special place in
my heart. We are coming back to the banks this summer, and we
are bringing our new baby girl, I can't wait to let her play in
the sand, and watch the sun set!

We vacationed the OBX 5/21 - 5/29/99. Stayed at the Inn at
Corolla Light 3 days to celebrate our 35th wedding anniversary.
They had a bottle of champagne on ice waiting in our room when
we got there along with a card. It was a nice touch. Our
anniversary was actually 2 days later and our daughter surprised
us with a wine basket waiting in our room when we got back that
evening. We fixed steaks on the grill and relaxed. You could say
we were well wined and dined. We were disappointed that the pool
was still closed on the Inn premises. We were not advised that
it would be. An indoor pool was available to drive to or take
the trolley, but we declined that option. Whatever you do if you
stay there, don't take a room in the pedestrian traffic zone.
Room was gloomy and poorly lit. They had a great complimentary
breakfast layout, which was good because if you didn't eat it
there or fix it in your room it was hard to find. We had the
most fun discovering that our 4WD drive Mazda MPV Van was fully
capable of negotiating the beach and we drove 9 miles north at
the surf's edge. It was exhilarating. There are homes on the
beach only accessible by beach - no roads. We had hoped to see
the wild horses, but didn't. We had picnicked on the beach the
day before, but the flies were so vicious they bit right through
the insect repellant. We found Corolla a bit too separated from
everything for our tastes. Don't miss the Currituck lighthouse,
the view was incredible and worth the 214 steps it took to get
there. The best place we found to eat at that end of the
Outerbanks was a newly opened place called Qwackers at Duck. The
Duck Seafood Buffet was scheduled to open the following
Wednesday ($22.95 for adults). Qwackers was more reasonable and
located in the same building. We were treated to a beautiful
sunset on the sound following a thunderstorm that occurred while
we were eating. It was breathtaking. We also ate at Fishbones in
Duck. We highly recommend the Clam Chowder (get a bowl), but NOT
the HOT CRAB DIP. What an awful thing to do to good crabmeat and
it was served with garlic bread of all things. We stayed at The
Sea Oatel on the beach in Nags Head for two days. Great view of
the Atlantic. There was a sandstorm going when we arrived that
built dunes on our 3rd floor balcony though and sand blew into
everything. Following day was gorgeous and we visited the
Elizabeth II a replica of a sailing ship. We ate at the Wharf, a
very popular seafood buffet, which is everything it's claimed to
be ($17.95 for all you can eat). Get there early and wait for
the door to open. Otherwise there will be long wait. It was
empty when we went in and packed when we left. The Grits and
Grill was good for breakfast. We also liked the shopping
opportunities around Nags Head. We left the motel curtains and
balcony door open all night the second night so we could hear
and see the breakers. Awoke the next morning to see several
porpoises feeding just offshore. Stopped to see the Hatteras
Light House. It hasn't moved from its original location but a
roadbed is being prepared for its move later in June. Picture
taking not good because of all the construction machinery.
Stayed two nights at the Pony Inn on Ocracoke. Very nice.
Captain' Ben's is right next door and had wonderful food. Took
our "dune buggy" (Mazda MPV) for a spin on the beach again.
Visited the Ocracoke Lighthouse, which was interesting. The
shops are fun and don't miss the museum next to the ferry
landing. Unless you are going fishing or to the beach that's
about it for Ocracoke - 40 minute ferry one way and 2 1/4 hours
on the Cedar Island Ferry going the other way. The "wild" ponies
are in a pen on the highway going into Ocracoke Wanted to visit
Cape Lookout Lighthouse, but cost was prohibitive. You have to
take a ferry and I believe it was $20.00 per person. $65.00 to
take your 4WD. Bought postcards instead from The National Park
Service's beautiful facility. We picnicked and watch boats go
by. Spent the last two nights at the Homestay Motel in
Wilmington. Best room yet and very reasonable. Pool was
beautiful and the ocean warmer. Visited the newly remodeled NC
Aquarium at Fort Fisher. Would you believe they have a petting
zoo of sea creatures. There were several species of crabs
including Hermit & Horseshoe crabs that kids could pick up (with
supervision). We enjoyed that as much as the kids. Tried to go
to Wrightsville Beach. No places to park so worked our way back
out. People were walking miles to get to the beach. It was the
complete opposite of Corolla. We went back to the pool at the
motel. Ate at Sticky Fingers BBQ. Ribs were delicious.

Oh, the Outer Banks... dream of my heart all year long!
Favorite things to do? Roll down the dunes at Jockey Ridge.
Ocean, ocean, ocean. Star gazing from the hot tub every night.
Black Pelican, yum. Shop in Duck. Mosh with the tourists in one
of the many all-you-can-eat seafood buffets at 5:00 pm.
Castle-building at low tide. Swim for the opposite shore!
Parasail as often as possible.... Heaven on earth?

4/25/99 We have been vacationing at the OBX, for approx. 25
years. I have experienced it as a child and now my husband and I
take our children there. We love it. It is definately a family
oriented place to visit. Some of the great places to eat while
there would be: Awful Arthurs, Tale of The Whale, Tortuga's Lie.
Actually, there aren't that many places that we don't enjoy. Get
there earlier and on check out day, leave early, like at 6am to
avoid all of the traffic leaving at the same time. A great place
to visit at night would be the Funny Farm at the Carolinian
Hotel. Don't miss the Oregon Inlet, and the Bodie Island
Lighthouse. Unfortunately this year the acquarium is under
renovation and the Hatteras Lighthouse is being moved, but put
those on for next years visit. We usually like to go over the
4th of July, but this year we'll be done there the 3rd week of
June. HAVE A SAFE AND WONDERFUL VACATION AT THE OUTER BANKS

Okay, there are certain places you have to go for certain
things to eat on the Outer Banks. HURRICANE MO'S for the best
steamed oysters ever (beer and wine only)! CAPT'N FRANKS for the
best hot dogs! CLARA'S for the absolute best ever she-crab soup!
DAIRY MART for the best hamburger you will ever put in your
mouth (outside dining only!) ELIZABETH'S CAFE all around yummy!
For great tuna taco's, it's gotta be GOOMBAY'S. JOHN'S DRIVE IN
for tuna boats with fried okra and don't forget the peanut
butter milkshakes (outside dining only!) THE OASIS: you have to
go get the BELLRINGERS! Raw oyster on a saltine cracker with
horseradish, hot sauce and a jalapeno; a buck a piece. Your
nasal passages will be clear for weeks. My record is six. If
Mark makes them; I can only do three. THAI ROOM for the sauteed
soft shells. We lived on the Outer Banks for nearly 10 years but
go back at least twice a year. Just got back from our 11 days
during Easter 99. Had a wonde! rful time
-- B&J submitted 4/16/1999
My wife, daughter (7 years old), and I vacationed in the
Outer Banks from 3/13/1999 through 3/19/1999 and had a great
time... We stayed at the Barrier Island Station in Duck; we
loved the location and the easy access to the beach, but our
unit was very poorly maintained and needed serious work. We
would give a thumbs up to the following activities: Jockey's
Ridge (especially kite flying), fishing in the Sound for Striper
Bass, the Wright Brothers Museum, shelling and watching the
sunrise on the beach, going to the Christmas Shop and Jeannene's
Cat House in Manteo, visiting the Elizabeth II and the Roanoke
Festival Island, putt-putt, and, of course, seeing the
lighthouses. My daughter and I preferred the Bodie Island
lighthouse; my wife liked Currituck best. Hatteras was
interesting with all of the construction efforts. We'd only give
a thumbs down to 2 activities: the trip to Ocracoke was very
disappointing - I think our expectations were too high - and
looking for ghost crabs at night on the beach. I felt like we
were hunting for snipe...maybe it was too cold?
Our big vacation activity seems to be eating... Thumbs up to:
Stack 'em High (breakfast), Fish Market (best tuna and fried
oysters; the place looks like a dump, but the food was
terrific), Owen's (simply wonderful), Black Pelican (great
seafood), Jeannette's Pier (great view!), Lone Cedar Grill, the
Seamark Coffee Bar, Big Al's (super tuna melts), and Argyles
Cafe (upscale food in a casual, friendly environment; superb
Bloody Marys; unbelievable deserts). Thumbs in the middle to:
Mako Mike's, Fishbones, and Bob's Grill (breakfast). Thumbs down
to: Weeping Radish (Manteo; a terrible attempt at German food),
RV's (a huge disappointment), and Howard's Pub in Ocracoke
(pitiful service, mediocre food, another huge disappointment).
It was very hard for us to get used to restaurants that did not
offer non-smoking sections. We had an especially disappointing
trip to Awful Arthur's where they wanted to seat us at a table
by the extremely smoky bar next to a table with a cigar smoker;
I made us leave before we even sat down. We've been spoiled in
Cincinnati where I believe it's a law to offer non-smoking
sections...
We found plenty of things to do during the week, but you could
definitely tell that it was off-season. Many restaurants and
shops were closed - some contrary to the information found in
the Insider's Guide to the Outer Banks. All of the fishing piers
were closed - including Avalon which was supposed to be open. An
extremely nice captain told us not to take any fishing charters
into the Ocean - the fish just weren't there yet. Ben Franklin's
opened up our last day and was great for getting souveneirs.
Judging from the tourist spots and restaurants, it seems like
there were more vacationers than they expected this time of
year...
All of the locals that we encountered were extremely helpful and
friendly - especially Captain Banks Meredith who put up with 3
fishing novices on a small boat and the crew at Argyles who made
us feel like regulars within 5 minutes.
We loved our trip and hope to return In Season within the next
few years. Several locals told us that September is the perfect
time for a trip to the Outer Banks; it's still warm, everything
is still running, and the crowds have thinned.

Hello all, We've been coming to the Outer Banks since 1993
with the only regret being that I didn't act on my first urges
to visit here 25 years ago! For those of you coming here, just a
few things to help you enjoy your visit
First, RELAX!! and don't be afraid to just come here and do
nothing more than sit on one of the beautiful beaches here and
watch the waves. The farther south down route 12 that you go
from Nags Head, the more laid back the pace. So if you're
looking for exotic night life than maybe this ISN'T place to go
to. There are some great restaurants just about anywhere along
the length of the Outer Banks however. And many have a bar or
lounge to relax in and have a few drinks.
Second, don't be surprised at the change that comes over your
kids! My oldest son is in high school and you can literally see
the stress drain from his face the minute we hit the Wright
memorial bridge! With the chance for them to "just be kids"
again you'll be amazed. And don't be surprised if you grow a new
generation of Outer Banks lovers while you're at it.
Probably the most important thing. GO WITH THE FLOW! The people
who live here have the patience of Job to put up with all of us
tourists. They not only seem to put up with us, most of the
residents here will go out of their way to help or to give a
recommendation for a good restaurant or place to go. Hey, there
are cranky folks in all walks of life and you'll probably bump
into one or two here, but that is the exception. The pace is
slower here, tap into that and remember, you're on VACATION.
Now for things to do, I recommend highly the National parks
programs given in season at the various lighthouses and other
locations along the seashore. Pick up a copy of the seashores
newsletter when you arrive, you can find it at the visitors
center as you enter the seashore just past Whalebone junction or
in other locations. It gives a great headsup on whats going on.
The programs are free and a great way to learn about the area.
Cape Hatteras Lighthouse is supposed to be moved this year
(1999) so I believe its closed, but the area around the
lighthouse itself is supposed to be open as much as possible. As
for the rest, walk the beach, drive (slowly) along some of the
back roads and just poke around to your hearts content. Watch
your speed on Rt 12, those signs are not just for decoration.
And be VERY wary of where you pull over in the seashore areas to
go watch the water. Those soft shoulders keep the tow truck guys
in business!
Where to stay? Good question, there are accomodations for any
budget and any taste. Check the websites, read some of the
experiences here (and remember, you're NOT staying at the Hilton
so things can be a little more rustic at times) We've stayed in
Buxton at the Lighthouse view since we started vacationing here
and have always enjoyed it. It costs a few dollars, but we've
never had a problem that wasn't taken care of quickly and with a
smile. Make sure your questions are answered regarding refunding
of deposits or rates because of Hurricane evacuations, not all
places refund your money in case you're ordered off!
And the last thing. These islands are probably the most
beautiful places on Earth. You can walk the seashore for miles
sometimes and not see a soul. It also means that if you get in
trouble in the water, you can be on your own for a while. Check
with the hotel or cottage rental places which beaches are
lifeguarded and those red flags mean just that.STAY OUT OF the
WATER. The currents can be strong and the power of the waves
more than you've experienced elsewhere. Keep an eye on the young
ones! Leave nothing but footprints, treat the islands with
respect and yep, you'll be hooked just like we were.

3DMy family and I have been comming to the outerbanks for
over twenty years. My wife used to come here as a child and
teenager. It was really primative back then.=20 We started out
going to NagsHead but moved further south to Hatteras. Along the
way we picked up more family and friends to vacation with us. We
now have about 8 or 9 families that know each other or are
related in some way renting a house on the beach in Hateras
Village the same week each year. We have a blast and love it
there. We always rent from Middget reality. They are have always
been great to deal with and their houses have always been clean
and well kept. One of the group that rents with us had a problem
this year with his refrigerator. They quickly got him a
temporary replacement and helped him find a super house for this
comming year.=20 The Channel Bass is the best kept secret in
town. The seafood sampler appetizer and soft shell crabs are out
of this world and the Haterras style clam chowder is my
favorite. Bubba's Barbecue is a must at least twice for the week
as is the Hatterasman drive inn which is run by two little old
ladies and is only open from about 11:30 till 3:00 each day for
lunch. Oster sandwiches, burgers, fries, and old fashion milk
shakes Hmmm. Billy's Fish House is also a good choice. We have a
great time at the beach, boogie boarding and body suffing. We
also set up a volleyball net. One of the group brings down a
couple of wave runners and we all take turns. They put them in
at Teaches marina and run them out the inlet and up the coast,
to the beach were we are all hanging out. It's quite a site.
This past year we decided to extend our one week stay by booking
a room for two days at the new Holiday Inn next to the ferry.
That worked well and was a lot of fun. This year I think I am
going to stay two days in the Nags Head area then travel south
for my week in Hatteras. =20

My husband, twins and myself have been visiting Nags Head
twice a year since 1995. Since we have always been on a tight
budget, we found a wonderful little place at milepost 16.5
called The Dolphin Motel. This is on the ocean, and we get an
efficiency for a great price. Diane and Phil, the proprietors
have become good friends and we have met several families who
vacation the same week we do each year (around July 4). The
first year, 1995, we were run out of town by Hurricaine Felix
(who didn't have the nerve to show his face, afterall) but we
kept coming back. The Dolphin reasonable, clean, accessible to
many area restaurants and shops. All four of us have our
favorite restaurant: My husband - Carolina Seafood. The food is
excellent!! Mine is The Fisherman's Wharf in Wanchese - out of
the way but great. My son's is RV's also great food and my
daughter... Burger King! Just kidding, but she does like those
whoppers. We have visited all the lighthouses, taken the ferry
to Ocracoke and back, climbed jockey's ridge, seen the Wright
brother's museum. My favorite gift shop is the Shipwreck which
is located on the Manteo Causeway. We also took an evening
cruise on the Crystal Dawn. Nags Head is heaven on earth, no
doubt about it. 1/15/99
