4 Most Exciting Things To Do In The Outer Banks On Your Trip to North Ca

The Outer Banks of North Carolina are famous for their appealing and exciting tourist attractions.

From expansive beaches to breathtaking sunsets, the place has something for virtually everyone who loves to travel.

But, would you be able to see it all in a single trip? Probably not!

And the worst feeling of any trip is realizing that you missed a spot that you know you would have loved to see. That’s why it’s important to have an idea about your preferred places and activities around the Outer Banks.

To that end, here is a list of four of the “must see” destinations and things to do on the Outer Banks of North Carolina.

1. Jockey’s Ridge

If you have ever had a thought about hang gliding, this is the time.

Jockey’s Ridge is a state adventure park that is spread over an area of 426 acres and housing the highest sand dune of the Eastern Coastal region.

Several hang gliding programs and offers run all year round and sunsets you won’t find anywhere else..

On top of this, Jockey’s Ridge is a place for kite flying and hiking as well.

Tourists who want to collect souvenirs can check out the museum.

2. Visiting The Remodeled Visitor Center

If you have an interest in science, aviation, and more, visiting the Remodeled Visitor Center should top your list.

This is a place where you can enjoy several activities related to aviation, historic preservation, and other technologies based on STEAM (science, technology, engineering, arts, and maths).

Also, by visiting The Center, you can get to have your hands on the bronze replica of the plane that the famous “Wright Brothers” invented.

And if you are wondering, yes, you can fly it too (or at least, a replica).

If you are visiting with kids, this museum can be a great attraction and a priceless chance for learning.

3. Climb Up The Cape Hatteras Lighthouse

Another exciting activity!

Yes, we are talking about climbing up the tallest brick lighthouse in America. It’s a long journey to the top, so long that if you have stamina issues, you may need to take a rest.

The lighthouse is iconic with its black and white spiral stripes and has been a landmark, serving as a warning indicator for mariners across generations.

To climb the lighthouse, you will have to buy tickets, which start selling at 9 a.m. The limit for visitors is 30 people per climb. And it takes around ten minutes to complete one round.

Ticket sales end at 4:25 p.m. So, if you really wish to climb up and have a bird eye view over the town, make sure you aren’t late.

4. Serve Your Tongue

The Outer Banks have long been popular for some of the best restaurants in and around the area.
