Outer Banks, NC

Outer Banks is the chain of barrier islands right off the North Carolina coast, and this family vacation offers an incredible blend of history and adventure combined with relaxation.

You can visit the Kill Devil Hills to see where the Wright brothers embarked on their first flight or explore Ocracoke, where the famous pirate Blackbeard fought the last battle and where the Lost Colony allegedly disappeared.

And after all your wild adventures, you can simply stroll around and relax on the expansive stretch of stunning beaches at your own leisurely pace.

You can also explore the Cape Hatteras National Seashore or ascend the tallest sand dune at the Jockey’s Ridge State Park. The little kids are sure to love the North Carolina Aquarium at Roanoke Island.

Whichever option you go for, you’ll be sure to have a good time. Just don’t forget to pack your sunscreen and grab your camera to capture all of your memorable moments!
