Does 16 miles of undeveloped coastline make us a little rough around the edges?
In the best possible way.

Experience a beach vacation that’s different from anything on the mainland. On Ocracoke Island, you’ll find miles and miles of pristine, undeveloped—and, best of all, uncrowded—beaches for you to enjoy. And that’s just part of our appeal.

A getaway to Ocracoke Island is also about getting back to nature. Soaking up our unique culture. And savoring the local cuisine.

Sure, our island, its beaches, and village might look a little different from what you’re used to on the mainland, but once you see all that Ocracoke Island has to offer, we doubt you’ll ever look back.
