[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]The Outer Banks.  SO BORING.[/quote]

That’s the whole point of going there - to do nothing. If you want nightlife, museums, or fine dining go somewhere else. The Outer Banks are for relaxation - hanging out on the beach with a good book, taking long walks, spending time with family. You don’t go there to “do stuff”, you go there so you don’t have to do anything![/quote]

Agree.  That's why we love Hatteras, there isn't much to do.  A little beach time, sea kayaking, some fishing, books, a drink on the deck watching the sunset...sounds good to me.[/quote]

Except NC beaches aren’t that great, the food options suck, and you see the same exact people as here. Besides, it is even hotter than here - last year we spent two weeks in an oversized house with a pool - we can do that here. There was also zero breeze, the sand was way too hot to walk on (literally), the water was so freezing that there was not one person who dared to go in - this was in July/August! We got wetsuits and tried to surf, but we couldn’t get boards or lessons because there was zero surf. No thanks, I’ll go anywhere else. [/quote]

Not to mention, crossing a highway to get to the beach. So sad that some people’s points of reference are so few. [/quote]

Wow.  What exactly are your amazing points of reference?[/quote]

I don’t think people care to share because then it will become over run, like most places.

If I had to wait all year for my “great beach vacation” to be OBX. I just as well stay home. [/quote]
