Cape Hatteras is a magnificent seaside kingdom. Hatteras Island is the perfect place to get away and is home of the Outer Banks’ most captivating open spaces and unadulterated island villages.
Ocracoke Island is a great place. Sixteen miles of beach surrounded by the crashing waves of the Atlantic and the serene shoreline of the Pamlico Sound offer solitude and tranquility. The island’s dunes and marshlands are untouched and the pristine beaches earned the distinction of #1 on the 2007 list of top beaches (compiled by Stephen Leatherman, a Florida International University coastal geologist who rates beaches nationwide). Ocracoke Island is owned almost entirely by the National Park Service. Here, life is slower, calmer and just a bit sweeter.
