Enjoying the Outer Banks
Food scene
This is one of my favorite restaurants on the beach. They do amazing fresh fish specials and if you have a craving for fried seafood, look no further. I usually start with the calamari or mussel appetizer. The fried oyster caesar is anything but boring if you want something on the lighter side. For entrees, I usually go for the seafood bouillabaisse or one of the dinner specials. They also have an awesome Philly that comes with hand cut fries! I never leave here disappointed.

Right around the corner, you can shop their retail section for craft beers or wine to go. You can also dine in with your choice of charcuterie, sandwiches or entrees. My favorite is the brie and prosciutto panini. Don't forget to order a side of onion dip for your chips!

Kill Devil Grill is a local favorite. They are known for their Grilled Wings and Cheesesteak Eggroll appetizers. Always check the specials here, they are good and they go fast! Their key lime pie is my favorite dessert on the beach. Get one to go if you are too full. Seriously, it's amazing. I've even been known to finish a slice with my coffee the next morning.

The Best Margarita on the Beach. I always get the featured flavored one and have been pleasantly surprised at all the new margarita flavors I've fallen in love with- cantaloupe is my summer fave! Be sure to get the sampler appetizer with guac, queso and 2 kinds of salsa. The tacos are awesome but my go to's are the salads. The garlic fries are addictive, watch out!

Sightseeing
If you want to learn a bit about Outer Banks history, this is a great spot to add to your list. The Whalehead Club was originally built in the 20s as a lavish duck hunting retreat. I can only imagine the parties that were held there! You can talk a tour through the home and check out the Currituck Lighthouse while you are there in Historic Corolla.

The most well known lighthouse in the area, you will often see this landmark representing the Outer Banks. Hatteras Island is a little slower moving than the northern beaches, so it even feels like a vacation for me when I go down there! Take a day to enjoy Hatteras. It's a great drive down and you can enjoy some beach time right near the lighthouse after you visit it!

Ocracoke is truly a unique place. It is definitely an ALLLLLL day adventure if you aren't staying overnight. Start early, pack some snacks in a cooler and hit the road. You get to enjoy the drive through Hatteras Island and end up at a ferry dock. Catch the ferry to Ocracoke and spend the day exploring this little fishing/ tourist village. Check out the Ocracoke Lighthouse, eat some tacos at Eduardo's and buy some local art to commemorate your trip!
