Subject: New to the Outer Banks
My husband and I are looking for a pet friendly area on the outer banks that is relatively close to shopping, restaurants, and other convienences. We don't necessarily want to be in the hustle and bustle. We wouldn't mind having to drive to restaurants, etc. We are looking for a vacation to get away from the daily grind! Any recommendations would be greatly appreciated. Read More...

hello, hope that I get some advice from some of you seasoned OBX vacationers...I am contemplating renting to the OBX next summer, and basically, to be blunt, I haven't the slightest clue where to begin. Is their one place/beachfront/area that is more advantageous to another? Can you provide information on good agents to use for rentals? Are their any website resources I can consult that might assist me in my search. Any advice you can give is a tremendous help!!!! Thank you so much. TJ. Read Replies...

Hello All!!! I am an Outer Banks "newbie" and was wondering if some of you would offer some suggestions or opinions regarding the best locations to stay. Being that this will be more of a family vacation with about 10 adults and 6 young children we are trying to strike a balance between pure relaxation and things to do. Thanks in advance for your assistance. Read More...

Subject: New to OBX, tell us where to go!
This will be our first trip to OBX! We plan on going next May/June with our 4 year old daughter. What do you recommend? We know we want an ocean front condo, and we want to plan a day of bike riding. We can't wait to see some light houses and of course looking for a few other places to visit!

Subject: First Timers -- Lots of Questions!
I am taking my wife and 2 year old twins to the Outer Banks this summer -- our first time there. (It should be noted, we are also taking our dog, too!)
Here are my questions:
1. When is the best time of the summer to go?
2. Is Labor Day weekend going to be insanely crowded there?
3. Is it too hot in August and/or too cold in September/October to go?
4. Where is the best place to go for beauty and calmness -- we don't need a night life, and are looking for less crowds as much as possible. We have considered, so far, Nags Head and Duck -- are we on track?
5. Any other tips? Read More...
