Cool place to walk along the sound or sit on the sound side​ "beach" if the wind is inhospitable​ at the ocean beach. Also, a great place to fly a kite or see some interesting kites.

Google maps is just showing the entrance to Cape Hatteras National Seashore. From Oregon Inlet to Rodanthe there are places to pull off on the side of the road and walk over to the beach and have a stunning, white sand beach just a hike over the dune all to yourself (or nearly all to yourself compared to Kill Devil Hills)>

If you have a 4 wheel drive vehicle or are willing to hike out to the beach, this is a flat, white sand beach that is great for kids or those looking for a beach without steep drop offs or high surf.

Part of the NC Aquarium system, Jennette's Pier is "hurricane proof" working fishing pier with wind turbines and a gift shop. The beach here is also nice and has a bathhouse and parking lot. Right across the street are a playground for the kids and Sam and Omie's restaurant - an Outer Banks institution. For snacks while you're​ hanging out on the beach here, try Cahoon's Market right next door. They have homemade salads and sandwiches as well as produce and gourmet items and beach gear.

Make sure you make a reservation on the NPS website if you want to make the climb. It's​ the closest lighthouse to us and the easiest climb. Great stop on your way to Oregon Inlet, Pea Island Wildlife Refuge and all points south on Hatteras Island. Right across from Coquina Beach Bathhouse.

Drinks & Nightlife

Okay. This place is NOT a winery but none of the other subcategories fit. It is a wine shop with a wine bar with panini sandwiches and tapas style dishes. They also have more beers on tap than anywhere else on the Outer Banks. There is a pool table upstairs and they have low key, live music most nights in season. Its less than a mile away, so you could walk or ride bikes there.

This is a decent restaurant that is open all day for lunch and dinner and then becomes a bar scene at night. They are also a brewery and make some pretty good beer ​if that is your thing. You can do a brewery tour, too. They have a fenced in backyard that is open in nice weather with cornhole and a play area for kids. (It is NOT dog-friendly.) Pretty good brunch on Sundays.
