Going to Outer Banks for the first time ever


Ja  Rhule

Recommended Posts

Port O'Call in Nags Head had some great food.  Don't know if that's still there or not.  Also, if you like beer and good sea-food in a laid back place, Awful Arthur's is pretty good....that's in Kitty Hawk I believe.  Haven't been there in a few years so they might have some newer ones.

 

As for places to see, I'd say the sand dunes, Wright Brothers Memorial, and the NC Aquarium on Roanoke Island.

 

Of course all of these places are on the northern outer banks.

I enjoyed driving that main road and seeing all the different lighthouses

My wife loves lighthouses! Might have to stop and take pictures. I also booked 12 hour long fishing charter and purchased surf fishing rod and reel. Will go out in the early morning and maybe evening, will try to catch few things.

Go to Ocracoke, ask around for someone to take you to Portsmouth Island.  Will cost about 20 bucks.  They will drop you off and pick you up later.  There is and abandoned town, used to be a coast gaurd station.  Groups "adpot" the buildings and still maintain the structures.  When you are not on the beach side you will need mosquito repellant.  On the beach side the mosquitos are not a problem.  Take a lunch.  If you are with a significant other.  Take your clothes off and run around naked or whatever.  You will most likely be totally alone.  If not no will bother you.  Dont be surprised if see other naked people in the distance.  Plenty of cool sea shells.  Plenty of quiet.  Very peaceful.

That sounds like a plot to a horror movie!

I went over to Porstmouth a few years ago with some locals (my wife is from Ocracoke).  I've never seen anything like the mosquitos over there. We were literally sprinting to shelter as a swarm of those suckers chased us. It was pretty damn funny looking back. It is a really cool place, but yeah bring bug spray.

    • Steelers fans will take over the Stadium and city   It will be unbearable  worse for me, on the west coast, resigned to the nfl network and you know it will be a steelers broadcast team.    It was ungodly bad with sheduer 2 weeks ago  Last game, tried listening  on panthers radio and  watching  on espn live last week but the delay between the 2 drove me nuts  so as bad as they were playing, found something else to do 
    • I mean I don't have a personal axe to grind with any human on the Panthers roster.  I know AT shouldn't be dominating the slot. The fact he is....is because we have a horrific front office/management.   I can part with any player.   The goal is a winning team.   the root of the AT ranting, is really just looking out for BY (people like to call me BY hater though).  A QB who was basically screwed from day 1 when we got drafted here.  I went hard at Carolina then too for setting him up to fail. Because it was obvious from the jump the setup was failure by design.  Which was true.   I said Frank bad zero sense with BY.  Miles Sandes made double zero sense.  The players they got in FA made zero sense.     Either you build a BY O.....or you move on from BY.  I have said I am cool either way.  We are in no man's land and have been there since they day we drafted him.   
    • It's the QB school guy mentality. Thielen is a shitty #1 option so aaarrrrggghhhh FUUUUUUUUUG HIM!!! This dude SUCKS!!! Yeah, Thielen should no longer be a #1 option at this stage in his career. He honestly shouldn't be a starter at this point in his career. But it's not an Adam Thielen issue that we've had to ask him to do that.
