Cape Hatteras National Seashore
Park Overview
Stretched over 70 miles of barrier islands, Cape Hatteras National Seashore is a fascinating combination of natural and cultural resources, and provides a wide variety of recreational opportunities. Once dubbed the "Graveyard of the Atlantic" for its treacherous currents, shoals, and storms, Cape Hatteras has a wealth of history relating to shipwrecks, lighthouses, and the U.S. Lifesaving Service. These dynamic islands provide a variety of habitats and are a valuable wintering area for migrating waterfowl. The park's fishing and surfing are considered the best on the east coast.

One of my favorite parks
Visited Bodie Island light house and Cape Hatteras light house and camped out at the Frisco Campground. Great place with a fantastic view! Very relaxing. I highly recommend it to anyone.

Best beaches in America
I camped Cape Hatteras and it was impressive. The ocean is 80 degrees and the color is aqua. It is a magnificent place to camp.

Our Favorite place to get away
My wife n I had our honeymoon here n 07 n come back every year since. we have awsome memories of this place n hope to have many more years of memories with our 3 kids at this awsome island.. i couldnt think of a better place to go n just get away... The ocean sounds just relieve the stress so just take a few mins to just sit n listen its like having a natural theropist

National Park Service
The National Park Service is the WORST thing that has ever happened to the Outer Banks! Not allowing a fireworks display on the 4th of July is anti-patriotic and not fair to all the people who paid money to come down here this week and expect to see a display.

a true place of exploration and wonder
You are the visitor in a land full of uncharted wonders. The tidal pools abound with life, birds are commandeering their nesting sights. You can visit over and over and always discover something new.
