🐢 Keep the OBX Wild & Wonderful
Each summer, sea turtles return to the Outer Banks to nest — and if you’re lucky, you might witness baby hatchlings making their way to the ocean. 🌊

Only 1 in 1,000 will survive to adulthood, which is why protecting nests is so important.
Here’s how you can help:
✔️ Fill in beach holes before you leave
✔️ Keep lights off at night (they follow the moon!)
✔️ Pick up your trash — even the smallest item matters
✔️ Never touch nests or shine lights on hatchlings
✔️ Keep dogs leashed near the dunes

🐣 From Corolla to Cape Hatteras, every little turtle counts.

Celebrating National Lighthouse Day on the Outer Banks 🐚✨

From historic charm to breathtaking views, the Outer Banks is home to some of the East Coast’s most iconic lighthouses — each with its own story to tell:

✨ Cape Hatteras Lighthouse
At 210 feet, it’s the tallest brick lighthouse in the U.S. and was famously relocated in 1999 to protect it from shoreline erosion.

✨ Bodie Island Lighthouse
Known for its striking black-and-white stripes and marshland setting — still lit nightly with its original lens from 1872.

✨ Currituck Beach Lighthouse
This unpainted red brick beauty stands tall in Corolla and offers panoramic views after a 220-step climb.

✨ Ocracoke Lighthouse
Built in 1823, it’s the oldest operating lighthouse in North Carolina and a charming part of Ocracoke’s quiet landscape.
