Subject: Things
to do on 4x4 beaches
We are thinking of renting two large homes
on the 4x4 beach next May, for a group ranging
in ages from 27-60, with 3 kids ages 3-8.
Anyone have thoughts on if this is a spot
a lot of people would like, or if it only
appeals to those who prefer solitude? We
just vacationed in So. California and people
went surfing, on bike rides, and could run
out to the stores quickly if need be, so
I have a feeling this will be much different.
Does the area have things to do for people
who want to be active outside? Is it difficult
to get to a nearby area to do shopping,
get some town life? Having never been there,
your expertise is much appreciated! Read

area
We are staying 9 miles up in the 4x4 section,
and had a question about my vehicle. I have
both a Chevy Trailblazer (2003) & a
Ford Explorer (2002) and needed some advice.
Both are 4wd, but the Trailblazer is slightly
lower to the ground than the Explorer and
the tires are more for highway use. I've
read a lot of the message boards (excellent
info), but didn't find much on just how
rugged a 4x4 needs to be to get up to this
area. Thanks for any help! Read

beach traffic
A group of us are planning our first visit
to OBX this year and are staying at one
of the 4x4 beaches about 3 mi. north of
the paved road. Recently, someone told me
that they wouldn't advise staying here because
of all the people 4-wheeling driving up
and down the beach at all hours of the day/night.
With kids, they also told me that you have
to watch for 4x4s while the kids are playing
on the beach. While I doubt it's as bad
as they said, what's it really like there?
Thank you! Read

rentals
I will be driving a rental car from PA to
the Frisco/Hatteras area.I would like to
rent a 4x4 somewhere close to these locations,
since I can only drive one vehicle at a
time and leaving the first rental for a
period of time at some unknown location
would make me uncomfortable. Is there any
rental agency close to either of these two
towns? Read

Beach driving & sitting
Just where is one to sit in the 4x4 area?
I'm confused! We, like most people, like
to sit at waters edge, but 'they' say you
are to drive at waters edge. I also see
people driving back farther,closer to the
dunes-in other truck tracks. So where is
the 'right' place to sit? I worry sometimes
we will blend in with the beach because
of the sun glare and get run over! Dont
get me wrong, i wont vacation anywhere else
but the 4x4 area-so dont suggest i go to
another area! LOL---just tell me where to
sit :) Read

wheel driving
I have read the sites about four wheel driving
south of Nags Head. However, I cant get
a good idea of how long a distance is four
wheel accessible traveling south. I am trying
to decide whether or not to come in my four
wheel drive truck or just come in the car
when we visit OBX next month... Read

We vacation in the 4x4 area on Swan Beach.
We are thinking of going farther north this
year, somewhere around the 8-9 mile mark.
Everyone says it is very tranquil and private
the farther up you go. BUT as i am looking
at aeriel views and just general searching
it looks like there are a lot MORE houses
up there than at the 3-6 mile area. Any
input on this?? Thank you in advance for
help! Read

Horses in Carova
My family and I are visiting Carova this
summer and are excited about the wild horses.
However it did just dawn on us that their
maybe a lot of Horse droppings and horse
flies. If anyone could give us their opinion
of Carova we would greatly appreciate it!
