With our wide, sandy beaches and refreshing waters, it is easy to see why the Currituck Outer Banks is a popular vacation destination among travelers from the Mid-Atlantic and East Coast, and from all over the country. But there is more to enjoy on the Currituck Outer Banks than just laid-back days spent along the North Carolina coastline. Currituck County is a region rich in history and serenity - an ideal vacation spot for golfers, families, and honey-mooners. Sample the fruit of our vineyards and watch for wild mustangs frolicking in the surf. The Currituck Outer Banks is more than you imagined - come see why!
Statistics show that most of beach rental properties all over the
country are being booked in the early spring. Planning your vacation
early gives you several advantages.

People often look at us funny when we talk about driving down to the
Outer Banks, specifically the northern part in Corolla, for a weekend or
longer in the fall. Why would we do anything like that, they wonder,
for an autumn. Honestly, I don't find it strange at all. People often go
south for the winter. I would know - I'm a native Floridian and have
experienced the influx of visitors in the colder months.
