Outer Banks Shopping

This drive-thru beverage store offers a huge variety of beer, wine (no hard liquor) and beverages, and you never have to leave your car – the cartender brings your order to you. You may also walk into the Breeze Thru General Store, which has everything you would expect from a convenience store but so much more, including lottery tickets, vaping supplies, an ATM, ice, propane, firewood, 5-gallon water jugs, wine, hats and, of course, the famous Breeze Thru T-Shirts. Breeze Thru also offers the only keg service on Hatteras Island (online order only). The store, which features Sunoco gas, is located at milepost 55 and is open seven days a week. You gotta do the Breeze Thru!

In Duck’s Scarborough Lane Shops you'll find Cariloha Outer Banks, where you’re invited to experience the extraordinary plushness of fabrics made from bamboo – undeniably one of the most durable and eco-friendly materials on the planet. Check out their selection of exclusive clothing for men and women, along with an extensive line of bed and bath products in styles inspired by the Caribbean and the spirit of Aloha. Affectionately known as the “loving stalk” of the world, bamboo self-renews in rapid abundance and offers incredibly strong, moisture-wicking fibers that are a whopping 3 degrees cooler than cotton and twice as soft. Try on some silky shirts, pants or PJs or run your fingers along a few of their velvety sheets, blankets or towels. You can even take a time-out to rest on the showroom’s Bamboo Comfort Mattress. And just so you know, you could also have the mattress, or any of their bedding and bath products, delivered home with free shipping (within the continental United States). Derived from a celebrated miracle plant, the products at Cariloha Outer Banks present healthful comfort and bio-consciousness all woven into heavenly softness.

In a charming restored 1950s Hatteras cottage, Blue Pelican Gallery offers an eclectic mix of artwork, most of it local. Owner/artist Jennifer Johnson is a native Hatteras Islander, and her photography reflects her love of the area. She also has several lines of locally handcrafted jewelry like her own ocean-inspired resin pendant necklaces and glass-beaded jewelry. Blue Pelican is also home to an ever-changing assortment of gifts and artwork from other local, regional, North Carolina and American artists and artisans, including laser-cut and engraved seasonal and wall decor. Hatteras Island's only local yarn shop is two colorful rooms chock full of yarn, notions, needles and hooks, and you can even find spinning, weaving and felting supplies here. Blue Pelican also offers a fun selection of upcycled art pieces. They offer online shopping on their website. Look for this gallery in the heart of Hatteras.
