So Much to See in Beautiful South Nags Head
The location of this cottage in South Nags Head makes it easy to relax in the peaceful and natural surroundings, grab some food from Nags Head's renowned restaurants, or pick up a souvenir from a local retailer! There are also several historic sites nearby that the whole family will enjoy including Jennette's Pier (where you can walk 1,000-feet out over the Atlantic Ocean and try to reel in the big one), the Bodie Island Lighthouse (where you can climb to the top for a 360-degree view of the surrounding flora and fauna), and Jockey's Ridge (where you can hike the tallest living sand dune on the East Coast!) Take the Herbert C. Bonner Bridge over Oregon Inlet and spend the day exploring Pea Island National Wildlife Refuge on nearby Hatteras Island. Unparalleled views of the Atlantic Ocean, direct access to the beach, and close proximity to dozens of Outer Banks attractions, landmarks, restaurants, and amenities—what more could you ask for?
