Activities and Attractions

The picturesque resort village of Duck has a split personality. On  
one hand it's a sleepy hamlet ideal for families craving a quiet  
beach vacation. Delightful cottages fill the village from sea to  
sound; there are no hotels and only one B & B. Duck's lively side  
also boasts activities galore. The soundside waterfront area  
features parasailing, kayak and jet ski rentals, plus sailing and  
windsurfing outfitters. The bike path running the length of the  
village is traveled with early morning exercisers, tots on bikes and  
inline skaters and provides a scenic trail to and from the village.  
 
 
The entire area is a fisherman's paradise from convenient shoreline  
fishing to full day ocean excursions out to the Gulf Stream for the  
really big ones. Take in some serious crabbing from the sound pier  
adjacent to your home, visit the famous Cape Hatteras Lighthouse or  
the even closer Currituck Lighthouse. Take a short drive down the  
road to see the site of the Wright brother's first flight, or  
experience Manteo Island's unforgetable live performance of the Lost  
Colony outdoor drama under the stars. 
 
If adventure's your game, you can set off in search of the wild  
Spanish mustangs of Corolla often frolicking on the secluded  
northern beaches or ride the free ferry to Ocracoke Island to hunt  
down Blackbeard's ferocious pirates. Here on the Outer Banks,  
there's something to do for everyone. Or if you prefer, do nothing  
at all but kick back, relax by the pool, and enjoy that  
glorious OBX sunset!
