Outer Banks Beach Vacations
Wild barrier islands and wild horses.
A 200-mile string of barrier islands: lighthouses, wild horses at Corolla, Hatteras surf and beach houses on stilts.
Overview
Why Outer Banks.
The Outer Banks are about renting a big house on the dunes and spending a week outside: surf fishing, kiteboarding on the sound, climbing lighthouses, watching the wild horses at Corolla and driving the beach at Cape Hatteras. Duck and Corolla are quieter, Nags Head is the middle, and Hatteras Island is for surfers and anglers.
