A Jolly Good Place To Dine And Play by Chelsea Sherman

W

hen you first catch sight of The Jolly Roger, you might be unsure exactly what to think of it. Since its conversion from a gas station/grocery store to a restaurant in 1972, The Jolly Roger has been anything but your ordinary Outer Banks restaurant.

“We’re eclectic, it’s crazy. You’ll not find another Jolly Roger; there’s no rhyme or reason to this place—and that’s what people love about it,” says owner Carol Ann Angelos. It’s been 31 years since Angelos took ownership of Jolly, and over the years she has experienced many changes, including three expansions and a renovation after Hurricane Isabel in 2003. Although the restaurant has gone through several changes over the years, Carol Ann’s style is unaltered. The restaurant decor is an eclectic blend of Christmas, pirate paraphernalia, aquatic murals, handmade boutique-style gifts and old-time movie posters. Almost as diverse as the restaurant itself is the food selection. The Jolly Roger is open yearround for breakfast, lunch and dinner, and they offer something for everyone. Breakfast favorites include the Eggs Benedict, pancakes and home fries—all made in-house from fresh ingredients. For lunch and dinner, the restaurant offers a wide selection of options, from steaks and seafood to pastas and salads. All of the restaurant’s sauces are housemade from scratch, and

BREAKFAST SPECIALS... Starting at $3.99!

Constructed initially as a filling station in 1936, this eclectic building evolved into the Jolly Roger in 1972. By 1984, current owner Carol Ann Angelos kicked things into high gear by serving breakfast, lunch & dinner.

everything is taste-tested to ensure the absolute best quality food is being served.

worry about sacrificing quality for price—even when the prices seem too good to be true.

When it comes to food specials, The Jolly Roger is simply unbeatable. Among the most popular are the daily Early Bird Specials. Topping the list are the Buy-One-Get-One FREE Italian

For those looking for entertainment, there’s always something fun happening here. During the winter they host live poker events, Buzz Time NTN with weekly tournaments and contests… plus nightly karaoke year-round, hosted by local’s favorite D.J. Hambone. Over the years, Angelos has encountered a bit of pressure from some customers to change her style and “fit in” to match the times. But she has always found that The Jolly’s authenticity and originality is what keeps happy guests coming back time and again. “I was almost ready to sand down the booths, give in, do another color, but that wasn’t what I wanted to do,” Angelos says. “People love it the way it is.”

“We just like to make people happy and see them enjoy a good meal. We treat them like they’re coming home. That’s what makes us who we are,” says Angelos.

Specialties Dinner Entrée, offered everyday and Lobster Night Saturdays, featuring $19.95 Lobster Mac & Cheese, served with two lobster claws or tail. During the off-season, don’t miss the many All-You-Can-Eat Specials (Oysters, Shrimp, Ribs & Pasta) and Italian Tapas Night Thursdays, featuring $3-6 plates. Specials truly are special at The Jolly, and you never need ~Special Advertising Section~

From the unique atmosphere to the unmistakably home-cooked cuisine, everything about The Jolly Roger is welcoming, warm and completely unlike any other restaurant in the area.

Welcome to the Outer Banks

Adrenaline junkies and sun-seekers, anglers and explorers—these are the people who have been drawn to this thin strip of sandy coast for thousands of years.

W Photo By BROOKE MAYO

ith a variety of adventures around every corner as well as plenty of space to just spread out a beach towel and relax, the Outer Banks can mean paradise to just about anyone. Protruding out into the Atlantic Ocean, the Outer Banks is primarily made up of sand, beautiful marshes and trees. On one side, clean ocean waters wash up against pristine beaches; on the other, peaceful sound waters provide safe harbors for boats and lagoons for wildlife. The thin strip of land in between is at the mercy of wind and water, resulting in a rugged terrain of windswept sand dunes, maritime forests, flatlands and marshes. For such a thin stretch of land, the Outer Banks is packed with a long list of activities, adventures and attractions. Surfing, fishing, Stand-up Paddleboarding, kayaking, golfing, hang gliding, parasailing, jet skiing, wildlife spotting, lighthouse climbing and sailing are just a few of the activities that are available any time of year all the way from Corolla to Ocracoke Island.

The remainder of our welcome to you has been compiled by Kip Tabb, a local and long-time native of the Outer Banks who has kept track of all the awards and nominations the Outer Banks has received over the years. With his personal thoughts, research and local knowledge, you will quickly learn just why the Outer Banks is so special to both its visitors and locals alike. With so much to see and do around the area, it’s not surprising that these most popular barrier islands keep showing up on “Best of ” lists. The latest? The town of Duck was nominated by USA Today as one of the Top 10 Readers’ Choice Awards in the Best Coastal Small Town category. Or perhaps travelchannel.com choosing Cape Hatteras as one of the top five beaches. It’s nothing new that the Outer Banks has been recognized as a place of charm and beauty—it’s been ongoing for 430 years. When Arthur Barlowe returned to England after discovering the Outer Banks in 1585, he took pen in hand and wrote the first “Best of” description we have on record. “The soile is the most plentifull, sweete, fruitfull and wholesome of all the worlde…” he told British readers. Hyperbole? Perhaps, but he was writing about Roanoke Island and to this day there are still farms there. Continued on page 18


1991 Inaugural Visitors Guide

In Loving Memory of Yperochos “Perry” Kiousis The Founder of Stack ‘em High Pancakes and So Forth

A

fter the passing of Yperochos “Perry” Kiousis in October of 2014, his family, friends, customers and the Outer Banks’ community lost a very special person. Perry Kiousis was the founder of Stack ‘em High Pancakes and So Forth, located in both Kill Devil Hills and Kitty Hawk, which has been serving the Outer Banks the original pancake breakfast since 1981. Perry immigrated from Greece in the early 1960s and began working for his uncle’s “New York Hot Dog Shop” in Pittsburg for several years before being joined with his wife, Kiki. After having two sons, Steven and Nick, the family of four vacationed to Virginia Beach where they first discovered the Outer Banks. It wasn’t long after that Perry came up with the idea to sell pancakes “and so forth” in their new home, North Carolina, and in a matter of days, the land was purchased and the building was built in less than three months. Over thirty years later, the original store in Kill Devil Hills now run by son, Nick, and his wife, Dawn, and the second restaurant in Kitty Hawk run by son, Steve, and his wife, Kristine, continue to thrive in the Outer Banks. Perry touched the lives of more people than he and his family could ever imagine which is why he will be greatly missed by long time customers and frequent visitors. His kind and generous heart shined each day through his words and gestures, and for that he will continue to be known as a local icon in the Outer Banks community.

There is no way of knowing just how many “Best of” nominations have been awarded to the Outer Banks over the years, but it seems as though for as long as there have been lists of the “Best of” something, the Outer Banks keeps popping up. Also, Dr. Beach’s ratings of Outer Banks beaches are not part of the mix. He has ranked Ocracoke or Hatteras in the Top 10

Enjoy the award-winning beaches

American Beaches every year since at least the year 2000—that’s as far back as the research went—and rated Ocracoke as the Best U.S. Beach in the year 2007. After achieving the #1 rating, a beach is not included in future lists. The 2014 rank for Cape Hatteras placed it at #6. Kill Devil Hills was awarded as one of USA Today’s 10 Destinations Where the Weather’s Just Right in April of 2014. As a way to show how often that happens, Kip Tabb has compiled a sampling of some of the mentions for the Outer Banks over the last few years.

Fraternal Dunes A Back Barrier Dune System, At One Time Formed A Continuous Line of Dunes From Kitty Hawk Southward to Nags Head Wright Brothers National Memorial MP 7.5, 1000 N. Croatan Hwy., Kill Devil Hills

Defining moments in history are few, and perhaps no single moment has so defined an era as— 10:35 a.m., December 17, 1903—when the Wright Flyer trundled down the tracks laid on the side of a hill, and leaped into the air for a glorious 12 seconds of flight. The significance of the Wright brothers’ achievement had become a 1920s source of national pride and steps were taken to preserve the site. The Wright Brothers National Memorial, located in Kill Devil Hills, is at once a testament to the human spirit and a place where history comes alive.

Jockey’s Ridge State Park MP 12, 300 W. Carolista Dr., Nags Head

Jockey’s Ridge State Park is a national treasure and must-see destination on an Outer Banks vacation. Towering high above all, the majestic dune is the largest on the East Coast and part of a massive dune system spanning over five miles northward. The Outer Banks’ chain of dunes is protected by thick maritime forest meandering through the community. Families with young children can explore the nature trails and discover the wildlife that lives in the dunes. Those with an adventurous side can try kayaking, swimming and windsurfing on the sound side of the park. 252-441-7132. jockeysridgestatepark.com

The combination of inspiring views, soft sand and ocean winds draws adventurers from all over the world to learn to fly.

Hang Gliding Jockey’s Ridge has been witness to the entire evolution of hang gliding. When hang gliding gained popularity in the 1970s, Jockey’s Ridge became one of the premier spots in the world for beginners to safely learn the sport. The combination of inspiring views, soft sand and ocean winds draws adventurers from all over the world to learn to fly. In the first days of hang gliding, pilots could be seen walking out to Jockey’s Ridge with a roll of cellophane, an arm full of bamboo and a roll of duct tape, to build their glider and fly it. The sport was just beginning, and Jockey’s Ridge was a perfect place to practice. These dunes are still a perfect place to practice, although we have come a long way since the “Bamboo Butterfly”. Gliders have become so efficient that, with the right wind conditions, pilots can stay aloft for hours along the lift band of the ridge. In addition, hang gliding is now statistically safer than most other forms

of personal recreation. With these advances in technology and safety, hang gliding has become very popular and today the sport is pursued by thousands of people in the United States alone. The origins of hang gliding can be traced back to the 1950s, when Dr. Francis Rogallo (1912-2009) decided there must be a way for the general public to experience the joy of flying. At the time he was working for what would eventually be called NASA, and although they would not allow him to pursue his theory as an official project, they did authorize him to work on his concept on his own time. With the help of his wife Gertrude, Dr. Rogallo designed a flexible wing that could be steered and could glide forward through the air as it descended. All future hang gliders would be based on Rogallo’s patented design, giving Dr. Rogallo worldwide recognition as the “Father of Hang Gliding.” He was revered not only by all hang glider pilots, but also by the entire aviation community. Thousands of people a year flock to Jockey’s Ridge to understand what it felt like for the Wright Brothers, Rogallo, and others to take their first flight. The most common flights on the dunes are training flights (short flights from the top of the hill to the bottom). Jockey’s Ridge’s resident hang gliding school, Kitty Hawk Kites Flight School, which is the largest hang gliding school in the world, offers these training flights daily. Kitty Hawk Kites has been teaching the world to fly on Jockey’s Ridge since 1974. The school has contributed to hang gliding history as the host to the longest running hang gliding competition, the Hang Gliding Spectacular, held on Jockey’s Ridge each May. Just as the dunes saw the dreams of Dr. Rogallo come to life, the dreams of thousands of people each year come true as their feet pull away from the earth and they glide over the sands of Jockey’s Ridge.

En Route

T

raveling to the remote Outer Banks of North Carolina always makes for a fulfilling vacation. While boat access via the Intracoastal Waterway and air travel by charter plane are viable options, most visitors arrive by car, so it’s important to choose which route is best for you. The southern route is undoubtedly the most relaxing way, since it takes advantage of the North Carolina Ferry System. For those coming from the southern beaches of North Carolina’s Crystal Coast, the Cedar Island Ferry carries you through the same waters that Blackbeard once sailed, landing on Ocracoke Island after a tranquil 2 1/4 hour trip. The final leg of this route takes you through the picturesque Cape Hatteras National Seashore after a short, free ferry ride to the tip of Hatteras Island. The northern route from Virginia, has been improved in recent years with the widening of Route 168. Venture across one of the “Seven Engineering Wonders of the World” via the Chesapeake Bay Bridge-Tunnel. The Bridge-Tunnel project is a four-lane, 20-mile-long vehicular toll crossing the lower Chesapeake Bay connecting

NAGS HEAD _ From the base of the Bodie Island Lighthouse, it’s easy to forget you’re at the beach. Towering pines frame the parking lot, then yield to thick fields of marsh grasses. Wooden walkways thread between silver ponds. And the quaint keepers’ quarters with its cross-railed porch overlooks the sprawling, well mowed grounds. You can smell the brine in the air, taste the salt spray. But you can’t see the sea here, or the Pamlico Sound. Until you venture into the black and white beacon, under the gabled door, inside the dark oil house, across the round lobby with its checkerboard marble tiles -- and climb the 214 spiral steps. There, out on the iron balcony, you can look down, through the clouds, across the entire island. For 140 years, only keepers and park rangers have been allowed to drink in that expansive view. Now the renovated tower is open to everyone. If you can make the climb, you can see the light. “You can walk the same steps, hear the crash of the ocean, and see sights from a vantage that the keepers relished while they kept that beacon burning,” said Barclay Trimble, Superintendent of the National Park Service’s Cape Hatteras Group. “Oh wow. Oh, this is gorgeous!” whispered Rachel Lankford, 49, of Wilkesboro, when she made it to the top last fall. “I’m speechless. This is just … You can see forever from up here. But you still can’t see a single house.”

“We’re all so grateful that it’s open to the public,” said George Bonner, 47, a Coast Guard captain from Norfolk who visited with his family in October. “I’ve been coming here all my life. And I always wondered about that view.” North Carolina’s coast flanks some of the most dangerous waterways in the world. Just off Hatteras Island, the Atlantic’s cool Labrador Current whisks sailors south while, 20 miles to the east, the warm Gulf Stream carries ships northward. Captains trying to steer between the currents called it “threading the needle.” If they missed the slender opening, their ship would smash into a stretch of submerged sandbars known as Diamond Shoals. In the last 500 years, more than 1,000 ships -- and countless lives -- have been lost along the Outer Banks. In 1773, statesman Alexander Hamilton called the stretch of coastline “The Graveyard of the Atlantic.” Congress established the U.S. Lighthouse Service in 1789, but it took a half-century for a crew to scout suggestions for construction locations along Carolina’s barrier islands. One of the first places they recommended was Bodie Island, “where more vessels are lost … than on any other part of our coast.” The government pledged $5,000 to build the light in 1837. Twelve years later, the first tower was finished, 54 feet tall. But the sand was too soft, the base too unstable. The lighthouse started sinking, then listing and, after a decade, was deemed too dangerous for keepers to climb.

“The lighthouse is so much more than bricks and mortar,” said Bruce Roberts, who worked with his wife, Cheryl, to help preserve the Bodie Island Lighthouse. “It preserves the personal history of the people who worked there … whose work helped save countless ships.” Continued from page 36

The second beacon sat further south and was taller, 90 feet. Engineers built a broader, better base and imported a state-of-the-art revolving Fresnel lens from Paris. Sailors could see the white light from 15 miles offshore. During the Civil War, Confederate soldiers removed the lens so that Union troops wouldn’t be able to use the bright beam to navigate along their shores and wage an attack. For the next 10 years, the coast between Cape Henry and Cape Hatteras was dark. The last lighthouse, the one you can climb today, sits much further inland, away from erosion. It cost $140,000 and took 15 months to build. During that time, six ships perished along the Outer Banks. This brick tower opened in 1872 and is three times as tall as the last one: 165 feet. By day, black and white horizontal bands show sailors that danger lurks offshore, to the south. At night, captains can see the blinking beacon from 20 miles at sea. Early keepers carried cans of oil up the 12 stories to fire the wicks that lit the lens. They lived with their families in a white, two-story house near the brick tower, an isolated, lonely existence. In 1853, the keeper’s annual salary was $500 and a carton of lighthouse service library books. In 1932, Bodie Island Lighthouse was electrified, and generators and batteries replaced the oil drums near the entryway. The last lighthouse keeper left in 1939, when the Coast Guard took over navigation systems. Since then, the beacon has remained unmanned. The National Park Service began managing the grounds and buildings in 1953 -and eventually opened a museum and gift shop in the keepers’ quarters. But the lighthouse has always been closed to the public. Its tower, engineers said, was too unstable to risk that type of traffic. With satellite navigations systems and computers to guide them, mariners no longer rely on striped towers or their lights. But to most Outer Banks

residents and many visitors, the lighthouse remains a symbol of safety -- and provides a sense of place. “The lighthouse is so much more than bricks and mortar,” said Bruce Roberts, who worked with his wife, Cheryl, to help preserve the Bodie Island Lighthouse. “It preserves the personal history of the people who worked there … whose work helped save countless ships.” It took years for the Outer Banks Lighthouse Society to secure funding to save the crumbling brick tower. The longer repairs were on hold, the more work the lighthouse needed -- inside and out. Its bricks were beginning to crumble, woodwork around the windows was rotting, the ironwork was starting to rust. Finally, in 2010, Congress approved $5 million to restore Bodie Island’s storied beacon. The renovation took four years, and 2,000 pieces of scaffolding. Workers patched bricks and added mortar, reinforced the iron railings, cleaned each of the 344 glass prisms in the Fresnel lens. They repainted the inside of the tower, and brightened its black and white bands. In April, 2013, Bodie Island became the fourth lighthouse on the Outer Banks to open its doors to the public. Last year, more than 38,000 visitors from across the globe ventured inside. You can’t climb if you have heart problems, or trouble breathing. You can’t wear heels or carry a baby. It’s hot inside, rangers warn you. Don’t be afraid to turn back. Ten spiraling flights of stairs take you to the top. Thin windows frame each landing, letting in slivers of sunshine. You can step aside and rest on the landings, catch your breath.


[ beach and beyond ]

At the top of the staircase, you have to push open a heavy door. Then you emerge onto a thin iron balcony, where birds fly by at eye level. Above you, the lighthouse lens glistens through a glass room. Look down, to the west, and you can see clear across the marsh to the Pamlico Sound. Turn east and you see an expanse of grass and ponds, a thread of highway, sprawling dunes, then the frothy Atlantic. All of Bodie Island, the edge of America, unfolds there below you, at the top of the light.

ind a quieter slice of life just across the bridge from Nags Head on historic Roanoke Island, only eight miles long and two miles wide. Quaint and peaceful, life on Roanoke Island definitely runs on a slower pace. But there’s still plenty to do, from exploring the picture-perfect waterfront town of Manteo to setting out for an adventure with only kayak and camera. Exploring historic Manteo, you’ll find a village of fishermen and artists, storeowners and relaxation-seekers. The waterfront town is full of quaint gift shops, art galleries, cafes, delis, bookstores and restaurants. Relax on the docks, visit with colorful storekeepers, or sip on a cold drink at an outdoor café, watching people go by. Roanoke Island is most famously the site of the first English colony in the New World. In the 16th century, Sir Walter Raleigh organized two efforts to settle here, with both attempts ending in failure—the fate of the second string of colonists is still unknown. Learn about the mystery at Roanoke Island Festival Park, a 25-acre island park, featuring a recreation of the ship Elizabeth II, settlement sites, performances, films and museum. Watch the mystery come to life on stage

at the neighboring Waterside Theater. The Lost Colony outdoor drama has told the 400-year-old history for more than 70 years. The theater and its adjacent gardens are both a part of the Fort Raleigh National Historic Site, a 513-acre site that commemorates those early colonists. The park also features a visitors’ center, museum, historic trail, gift shop and picnic area. Another popular attraction on Roanoke Island is the North Carolina Aquarium. Featuring interactive exhibits, live animal encounters, daily programs and activities, the aquarium is a favorite for kids.

Where do you think

E

I shop?

dward Greene opened the now famous Outer Banks original Island Art Gallery and Christmas Shop in Manteo in 1967. Christmas stores were a new idea when he began that adventure. From the very beginning he dared to try new things to make the Christmas Shop a place of rich discoveries, a truly unique experience. Each and every one of the rooms were stocked and decorated with love and care. From the special music being played to the collection of antique furniture that displayed much of the gifts and art objects, great attention was paid to the details. Before Greene opened the shop he had a short career of approximately 20 years as a musical comedy, professional dancer. He performed and toured in several different theatrical venues. In 1953 he was hired by the Lost Colony dance director to dance in the Lost Colony, be assistant choreographer and be the understudy to Uppowoc the Indian Medicine Man. Greene’s first year (1953) was Andy Griffith’s last of seven seasons playing small parts and ending up the last four years as the lead role of Sir Walter Raleigh. Andy and Greene became good friends that year. In 1967, because of Greene’s love of the Outer Banks and its people, he quit show business and announced he was moving to Manteo. When Andy heard Greene was opening up a new business in Manteo and was going to sell Christmas ornaments in the summertime and art on Roanoke Island he said: “What! He is opening up a Christmas Shop?” He went all over town telling everybody” Eddie Greene has got to be crazy, he will lose his shirt.” Once the store “caught on” Andy was Edward Greene Turns 90 This Year! a great supporter of the shop; bringing in many show business friends to see the shop. Andy and Edward’s friendship remained constant and true for about 60 years. The Christmas Shop is now in its 48th season.

The Currituck Outer Banks – More Than You Imagined!

he Currituck Outer Banks have long been associated with gorgeous beaches, wild horses and a majestic lighthouse. Until 1985, this remote stretch of sand at the north end of the Outer Banks was protected by a guard gate, and the area was not accessible unless

slowly to the Currituck Outer Banks, also known as Corolla, until the mid 1980s. Since that time, there has been an explosion of construction and the addition of a variety of attractions and activities. Currituck County, established in 1668, started as a collection of fishing villages. “Currituck,” Algonquin for “land of the wild goose,” is an area that lived up to its name and attracted wealthy businessmen from the north who loved to hunt. These businessmen bought large tracts of land and established private hunt clubs such as the Monkey Island Club, Swan Island Club and the Currituck Club. The hunt clubs established a new industry in Currituck and kept the locals employed. The most famous of these clubs, the fully restored Whalehead Club, currently serves as a prominent historical attraction at Currituck Heritage Park.

The Whalehead Club was built in 1922 by Pennsylvania industrialist Edward Collins Knight, Jr. for his wife, Marie Louise LeBel, a French Canadian who liked to hunt.

a large hunt club mansion on the sound. The club featured one of only a few basements on the Outer Banks which was constructed by building the basement on level ground, then dredging a moat around the structure and pushing the fill around the basement. The resulting island became known as Corolla Island and housed an additional three levels, built in the art nouveau style of the period. The home has cork floors, Tiffany designed wall sconces, crystal and china, 18-inch walls with steel reinforced beams, hot and cold running fresh and salt water, a copper roof, five stately brick chimneys and so much more. Building materials were barged from Elizabeth City and cost $385,000. It took three years to build Corolla Island. The Knights used the club to entertain their northern friends and many distinctive guests, including Theodore Roosevelt. Having no descendents, the club’s ownership was transferred to Ray T. Adams in 1940. The renamed Whalehead Club went through a series of uses, including a rocket fuel testing site and a boy’s school. In the 1970s, it was purchased by a Virginia businessman who developed much of the land but let the club fall into disrepair. In 1993, Currituck County purchased the Club and the surrounding 39 acres and formed the Whalehead Preservation Trust. With county funding and private donations, the Club completed its restoration and is now open for tours. Currituck Heritage Park is also home to the Outer Banks Center for Wildlife Education, which features information and educational programming. The picturesque setting is a popular site for weddings, art shows and concerts. Moreover, it’s also the perfect spot to catch a breathtaking sunset in Corolla. In 1875, the Currituck Beach Lighthouse filled the last gap on the “Graveyard of the Atlantic’s” treacherous shores. It stands midway

for climbing during the summer season and also features the beautifully restored Lighthouse Keeper’s House. The lighthouse sits in the heart of historic Corolla Village. Around the turn of the 20th century, a small village sprang to life around the beacon. The village contained a one-room schoolhouse, church, post office and several private homes. Today, the schoolhouse operates as a school for children living in Corolla. The John Austin Memorial Chapel operates as a church and community center. Most of the homes have been restored and are now used as quaint shops. The village also became the home of the Kitty Hawk Lifesaving Station when it was moved from Kitty Hawk and restored as an office. Visitors may spend a delightful afternoon walking the sandy roads of the village and discovering life as it once was on the Currituck Outer Banks. While the wild horses have their own museum in Corolla Village, you can’t see them unless you venture north to the four-wheel-drive beaches. The wild horses of Corolla are believed

to be descendants of Spanish mustangs from 16th century explorers. For centuries, they’ve roamed the Outer Banks feasting on the native vegetation and providing locals with stock for farming. However, with development, the horses became threatened. A volunteer organization, the Corolla Wild Horse Fund, was formed to manage the herd. The organization moved some of the horses to an inland farm, but most of the herd was moved into the four-wheel-drive area north of Corolla. The Corolla Wild Horse Fund now helps with the horses’ medical care to ensure the herd is protected for many years to come. Photo By BROOKE MAYO

seabirds, turtles and abundant sound-side wildlife. Visitors can drive on the beach and catch a glimpse of pelicans and gulls diving for the catch of the day or perhaps see a majestic Spanish mustang overlooking the windswept dunes. Park your four-wheeldrive on the beach, unload the kids, coolers and fishing gear, and spend the day. The only requirement is that you don’t park within one mile of the ramp access to the beach and do not block the travel lanes. Enjoy the sun, surf, sand and peacefulness offered on the northern beaches. Beach-goers can also enjoy the pristine beaches of Corolla by staying at any of the numerous accommodations. One of the newer subdivisions to the Currituck Outer Banks is Pine Island, which features many private homes that can house up to 30 visitors at a time. Some houses feature home theaters, elevators, hot tubs, private pools and many other upscale amenities. The majority of the west side of Pine Island has been donated by the National Audubon society and, as a result, many of the homes in Pine Island offer majestic sound-side views as well as ocean vistas. Guests have access to a community pool and public Pine Island Racquet Club.

Beach-goers can also enjoy the pristine beaches of Corolla by staying at any of the numerous accommodations. One of the newer subdivisions to the Currituck Outer Banks is Pine Island, which features many private homes that can house up to 30 visitors at a time. Arriving at the sandy beaches of Corolla is like joining an exclusive society. It’s a whole new experience for vacationers, and it’s only available to those with four-wheel-drive. Whether you already own a suitable vehicle, rent a Jeep for an awesomely rugged adventure or join a group on a guided open air tour, your Corolla beach excursion promises to leave you and your family with a myriad of memories— unique to each person and different each time. Perhaps you and your family can’t get enough of the secluded beaches and astonishing wildlife and would like to spend more than a day here. The communities of Swan Beach, North Swan Beach and Carova Beach feature spectacular vacation homes that provide seclusion and access to one of the most pristine beaches on the East Coast. Part of what makes your Corolla vacation special is that most of the property is family-owned, giving it a genuine community feel and leaving out the gargantuan mega-hotels that litter other beaches. The east side of NC 12 features the communities of Spindrift, Ocean Sands, Crown Point and Buck Island. Spindrift offers acre home sites, a rarity in ocean-side developments. Ocean Sands and Crown Point offer some larger homes but feature the smaller, more traditional beach cottages. Buck Island is reminiscent of a historic coastal community. The sidewalks, street lamps, and brightly painted homes offer a different opportunity for the Corolla visitor. Whalehead Beach features a mixture of large homes with private pools and smaller beach cottages. The Caribbean-inspired homes of Monteray Shores feature “stucco” exteriors, curved archways and pastel colors along with more traditional Outer Banks homes. This sound-side community also offers beach access, a community pool, and tennis courts along with piers and fishing ponds. To the north, Corolla Light is an ocean-to-sound resort community.

Developed in 1985, the resort features an indoor Olympic size pool, indoor tennis, racquetball, an oceanfront pool complex, playgrounds, outdoor tennis courts, hiking trails and a bus for transportation within the resort. An activities director keeps the entire family occupied for the week. The resort has won numerous awards for “Resort Community of the Year” and continues to improve its accommodations to evolve with the changes in the demands of its guests. Corolla Village is also an ocean-to-sound community and is the oldest of the vacation areas on the Currituck Banks. Sand roads lead to private homes with heavily treed home sites. Adjacent to Corolla Village is Ocean Hill and the Villages at Ocean Hill, which offer beautiful traditional homes interspersed with estate-like vacation houses. Ocean Hill marks the end of the paved road, but one can continue north into the four-wheel-drive areas for additional outstanding accommodations. Spotted throughout the Currituck Banks are terrific shopping areas and an eclectic mix of restaurants. The oceanfront beaches and Currituck Sound offer great fishing and hunting venues, as well as water sport activities like kayaking, surfing and sailing. So if you’re looking for a great place to stay that offers fantastic accommodations, shopping, dining, activities and historical attractions, the Currituck Outer Banks should be your destination of choice. The Currituck Outer Banks is much more than a beach and definitely more than you imagined!

wild horses silhouette against the fiery sky

Saving Corolla’s Historic Wild Horses The Story Of Gus and his role in the Corolla Horse Fund It is said that the horses freely roaming the northern Outer Banks four-wheel drive area above Corolla are descendents from Spanish mustangs left more than 400 years ago. Typically led by a stallion, the horses divide into small groups and interbreed with one another causing a variety of birth defects. Today, nearly 50 mares in the herd that wander the dunes, neighborhoods and maritime forests have been injected with a contraceptive to prevent them from becoming pregnant for an entire year. But in order to keep the population of wild horses alive in the Outer Banks, the not-for-profit charity Corolla Horse Fund sent out their most suitable stag to the Currituck Outer Banks in November. Gus, a wild horse from a herd in Shackle-ford Banks, was selected to mate as often as possible in hopes of expanding the Corolla horse population and eliminate the amount of birth defects with his special genetics. Gus was named after a genetics expert, Gus Cothran of Texas T&M University, who discovered that the solution was to bring in a wild horse from another blood line to keep the population line healthy. Before there could only be up to 60 horses on the Corolla land, but recently, a new management plan has been signed that does not limit the herd size. Those involved hope that Gus can diversify the population of the wild horses in order to Continuedon page 66

preserve the Outer Banks’ most unique tourist attraction. The Corolla Horse Fund has spent the last 8 years watching over the hardy Colonial Spanish Mustangs of Corolla, developing a wide range of programs to meet their mission to protect, conserve and responsibly manage the herd. They strongly promote the continued preservation of the northernmost Currituck Outer Banks land as a permanent sanctuary for horses designated as the State Horse and defined as a cultural treasure by the state of North Carolina. Managing wild horses on 7,544 acres of diverse habitat, combined with over 700 houses and thousands of people and vehicles presents many complex challenges. During the height of tourist season, CWHF responds to an average of 100 calls per month regarding wild horse issues. Many calls are after normal business hours, but Fund staff responds 24 hours a day, 365 days a year. Each wild horse is documented by the Herd Manager and entered in a data base. Horses are not branded or micro chipped. They are identified by color, markings, and their home territories. Continuedon on page 68

Gus, a wild horse from a herd in Shackle-ford Banks, was selected to mate as often as possible in hopes of expanding the Corolla horse population and eliminate the amount of birth defects with his special genetics. Continued from page 67

The Herd Manager spends 20–30 hours per week in the field observing all the harems and documenting body condition, habitat usage, and harem composition. An annual aerial count is conducted by helicopter and compared to field notes. Once a wild horse leaves the beach, it becomes the physical and financial responsibility of the Corolla Wild Horse Fund. After they are restored to health, horses over the age of three are gentled and saddle trained. Horses under the age of three are gentled and have excellent ground manners. When they are ready, they enter the Fund’s nationwide adoption program. Nearly 60 horses have been placed in loving homes from Texas to Maine. Over the last 8 years,

CWHF staff and volunteers have saved the lives of horses suffering from colic, broken bones, severe wounds, infections, snake bites, birth defects, and near drowning. The Fund has also raised four orphaned foals. The Corolla Wild Horse Fund employs a darted immunocontraception program using the FDA approved nonhormonal substance PZP (porcine zona pelucida) to control population numbers and ensure that there is always enough habitat to support the horses. CWHF staff are nationally certified to safely deliver PZP by CO2 pistol or CO2 rifle. It is administered annually and is the least invasive method of delivery and the most humane method to control population. In addition, an older mare that is not having a foal every year will live a longer and much healthier life in the wild. Summers present unique challenges for both the wild horses and the CWHF. The number one tourist attraction in the county, the wild horses draw hundreds of thousands of curious visitors. The Fund operates a free year round educational museum and seasonal activities for children in Duck and Corolla that include painting, Meet and Mustang and Ride a Mustang. CWHF hires nearly 20 additional staff in the summer to help educate the public about the wild horses and the laws that protect them. The best way to respectfully observe and learn about the wild horses is by taking a trip guided by the staff of the Corolla Wild Horse Fund. Funds generated from trips go directly back to benefit the care and conservation of the horses. Taking a trip with CWHF not only helps the horses, it gives participants a membership in the organization. Members across the nation are a strong voice for the horses in matters that impact their survival and future. You can help the Corolla Wild Horse Fund keep them wild and free. Visit our website at www.corollawildhorses.com, like us on Facebook, or call us at 252-453-8002 to schedule your Trip of a Lifetime to see the wild horses. See the horses with CWHF – save the horses with CWHF! The Corolla Wild Horse Fund is a registered 501 (c) 3 not for profit. All contributions are tax deductible in accordance with IRS regulations.

These are special activities that families must do during their vacation, or it simply does not feel complete. The Outer Banks instills the sense of tradition, but they don’t always have to be extravagant or require a lot of planning and preparation. The great thing about the Outer Banks is you can consider hunting for shells on the beach as an annual family tradition and still create some of the most

once. Regardless of how many times you make it each year, there is one thing many families have in common while on the Outer Banks—making the most of your time together. The Trueman family vacations on the Outer Banks for one week every year—the last week of August when the crowds have largely dispersed. They rent a different beach house every time, but no matter where they stay, the first activity they do as a family before they even pick up their house key is rent bikes and surfboards from a local outfitters shop and book surf lessons for their oldest son. The Outer Banks is home to some of the best surfing conditions on the East Coast, so it’s no surprise one of their first obligations is to book a lesson. There are plenty of rental shops throughout the area, whether you are staying in Duck, Corolla, Kitty Hawk or Kill Devil Hills, so you won’t have a hard time finding a surf shop with a crew of experts to give you lessons and advice as well as

Racing around various types of tracks in all different kinds of go-karts is a great activity for all ages. The adults and teenagers can race their way to the finish line while the younglings can enjoy being the one behind the wheel for the day. The Outer Banks presents plenty of other outdoor activities that have turned into traditions for many families over the years. For example, the Kornacki family loves to drive down to Corolla and fly kites for an afternoon. Every year they pick out their favorite kite at a local souvenir shop and compete with one another on who can fly their kite the highest for the longest period of time. Another great tradition on the Outer Banks by the water, well in this case on the water, is a pirate cruise. Many families climb aboard this intriguing and one-of-a-kind tour at least once during their vacation because it is such a great time for the whole family. Live like a true pirate for an afternoon

he Outer Banks of North Carolina offers

The Outer Banks' Premier Kayak Touring Company Since 1999

some of the best coastal kayak touring options in the country. In one day you can

kayak in six distinct ecosystems: fresh, salt and brackish marshes, maritime forest, swamps and the ocean. Each of these ecosystems offers different wildlife opportunities, and each system plays a vital role in the ecology of the Outer Banks. Most of the tours are conducted on the sheltered side of the Outer Banks where the waters remain calm and are typically shallow. The marshes of the northern Outer Banks are fresh water because of the distance from the tidal influences of the Oregon inlet 30 plus miles away. The Pine Island Audubon Sanctuary and marshes

These marsh islands and creeks are inhabited by river otter and Pea Island National Wildlife Refuge, located just south of the Oregon inlet on Hatteras Island, is the Outer Banks premier salt marsh for kayaking. Known as a “birder’s paradise,” 365 species of birds have been documented on this refuge. The waters are quite clear due to its close proximity to the tidal waters of the Atlantic Ocean, making this a great location

variety of other aquatic life. Ginguite Creek, which meanders through Kitty Hawk Woods Coastal Reserve, is one of the world’s only preserved maritime forests. More than 1,800 acres have been protected from development by efforts of the Nature Conservancy. This location also explores brackish marsh where freshwater and saltwater species mix. Since the protection of the Nature Conservancy, both bald eagle and osprey, two formerly endangered species, have begun nesting on this preserve. The Alligator River National Wildlife Refuge is a swamp tour. Don’t let the word swamp fool you; this is one of the most beautiful locations to kayak anywhere. The waters here are the coloration of dark tea from the tannic acids of the bald cypress, loblolly pine and Atlantic white cedar. Winding creeks lead to mirror image lakes where alligators can often be seen sunning on floating grass fields (slough grass) or a protruding cypress stump. By choosing a reputable kayak touring company, you can relax and leave all the planning to them. The tours include basic instruction and all necessary kayak gear. In addition to providing instruction, your guide will also give you a narrative on local history and coastal ecology. A kayak tour on the Outer Banks will be the highlight of your vacation.

BEST PLACES TO PADDLE

On theWater 900 Square Miles of Water and 80 Miles of Coastline

N

owhere on earth is the reflection in the water of the sun rising and setting more abundant and breathtaking. With 900 square miles of water and 80 miles of coastline, the Outer Banks is ripe with opportunities for on-thewater activities. Our ocean, sounds and canals entice millions of vacationers each year who make the trek to our barrier islands. This area provides countless ways to set sail, cruise, paddle and soar—experience the water from the Currituck Sound to the Atlantic Ocean and all the inlets, bays and marshes in between. Rent a speedboat or wave runner and set your own course across turquoise waters. Many local places also offer wave runner tours where you can ride the waves and see the sights while following a local guide. If you want to learn to sail, the Outer Banks is the ideal place. For those wanting to catch a romantic sunset, embark on one of the cruises in the area and enjoy cocktails and snacks as the sun melts into the mainland. Or bring the family on a dolphin watching cruise, and get up

close and personal with the Outer Banks’ other summer visitors. For the more adventurous, the Outer Banks presents plenty of opportunities. For those days when the wind won’t stop, use its power to try kiteboarding, parasailing or windsurfing. All three activities are available, whether you want to take lessons or just show off your skills. Standup paddleboarding, becoming more and more popular by the day, is another sport that’s here to stay on the Outer Banks. This sport can allow you to navigate through still water or surf the waves. The Outer Banks are also known as a paradise for paddlers. Launch a kayak and explore our many nature preserves. Spot wildlife and birds, and get closer to nature than ever before. There are also many kayak excursions that offer knowledgeable guides to lead the way. From high seas adventures to quiet coastal excursions, the Outer Banks offers a wide variety of on-the-water fun. So escape the sand for a few hours, and take some time to explore this coastal paradise.

There are many places to stand up paddle board and kayak on the Outer Banks. Many vacationers rent a soundfront or canalfront rental home just to be walking distance away from the perfect launching point. For those visiting with off-the-water accommodations, there are plenty of public launching points as well.

CURRITUCK HERTIAGE STATE PARK Located in Corolla, the Currituck Heritage Park is a gorgeous soundfront park home to convenient launching points, the Currituck Beach Lighthouse and a variety of outdoor activities.

DUCK TOWN PARK A playground for all four seasons, the Duck Town Park is home to the calm sound waters on the Outer Banks as well as public activities and events and a newly renovated boardwalk.

KITTY HAWK WOODS STATE RESERVE Along with public sound accesses, the Kitty Hawk Woods State Reserve is home to scenic woods, wildlife and educational opportunities.

COLINGTON HARBOR Stand up paddle board riders love to try out the network of the soundside canals in Colington Harbor, which offers a scenic series of waterfront communities bordering saltwater canals.

ALBEMARLE SOUND Home to a nice wide soundfront beach, the Albemarle Sound has plenty of room for water riders of all kinds.

BONNER BRIDGE There are countless launching points around the Bonner Bridge area, from small jetties to lightly populated marinas and canals in Hatteras Village.

PEA ISLAND NATIONAL WILDLIFE REFUGE At the Pea Island National Wildlife Refuge, you will find a new inlet location that gives paddle boarders a gentle ride and spectacular bird watching.

SALVO VILLAGE At the Salvo Village you will find a popular destination for all Pamlico Sound-based water sports as well as seasonal picnic areas and restroom facilities. Editorial courtesy of outerbanks.com See Pages 82 & 83 For The Area’s Best Kayak Compaines!

he sighting of dolphins along the Outer Banks delights and amuses many summer visitors. Many people view these chance

encounters as a treasured highlight to a relaxing vacation and will happily spend hours observing the dolphins’ antics. What few people realize is that they are likely viewing the same group of dolphins, day after day and summer after summer. Some bottlenose dolphins will spend their summers in the waters of the Outer Banks and then migrate south for the winter only to return again in the early summer the next year. This early migration has led some people to call them the “Retirees of the Sea.” While you might have a chance encounter

A close encounter with a dolphin in the wild is a thrilling and memorable experience. Who could remain untouched by the amazing agility of a bottlenose dolphin as it leaps into the air beside a boat or as it exhales a breath of air causing a cloud of spray to shoot 10 feet into the air before disappearing under the surface again, or a young calf breathing out of the water in stride with its mother, never missing a beat?

Banks really lives up to its reputation as “Game Fish Junction.” For the visiting angler this means that there are countless opportunities for one to pursue their fish of choice. Whether you charter a boat or fish from a quiet spot along the sound by yourself, you will almost always be rewarded with a good day of fishing and probably a good dinner as well. The charter boat fleets along the Outer Banks are among the best in the world. The captains and crews are professional and courteous and will go out of their way to see that your fishing experience will be pleasant and productive. The boats going offshore (30 to 40 miles) will put you onto yellowfin and bluefin tuna, marlin, sailfish, dolphin and wahoo. Many times the catch can be incredible with over 500 lbs. of fresh fish going home to your freezer. (Your friends and neighbors will love you!) The inshore boats will also put you into some really hot action at a great price with catches of striper, red drum, huge cobia, speckled trout, bluefish and flounder. If you are fishing from your own boat or from the surf, the tackle shops on the Outer Banks are all well stocked and well staffed by experienced fisherman who can show you what the fish are biting on and rig you up with just what you need. No matter what kind of angler you are, from novice to veteran, you’ll find everyone involved in the industry willing to help you catch fish at a price you can afford.

Filmed entirely in the Outer Banks, National Geographic Channel’s hit series Wicked Tuna became top-rated leading to its spinoff, Wicked Tuna: North vs. South, which premiered as the network’s highest-rated new series of 2014 and continues its second season in early 2015. Filmed on the unpredictable, high seas of the Outer Banks, the second season of Wicked Tuna: North vs. South once again follows four of the New England captains as they take their boats south during the January to March bluefin season.

catch as they attempt to reach the evasive bluefin in the southern Atlantic water; however, new and returning Southern rivals—including the all-female crew aboard fishing vessel Reel Action—make the race challenging for the competitors and nail biting for the viewers. Along with Hard Merchandise, the names of the other vessels followed last year were Pin Wheel and Hot Tuna. In season 2, watch these vessels return, along with Reel Action, in a gripping and yet another exciting fishing season along the coast of the Outer Banks.

Shopping From well-known brands to locally made goods...Outer Banks has it all

T

he Outer Banks has been a popular destination for beach goers for decades. Far from the mega mall complexes that are characteristic of big cities, the local merchants of the Outer Banks have made their living on this 80-mile long strip of beautiful sand beaches.

The quaint character and charm of the one-of-a-kind mom and pop shops

that are so characteristic of the Outer Banks will keep you busy and entertained for days. Although sitting on the beach all day is what most people come to the Outer Banks for, be sure to keep a few days open to treat yourself to some great shopping! Chances are you will find everything you were hoping for and more, great gifts to help remind you of your amazing time here and, of course, amazing deals. From home décor to apparel to souvenirs, area shops are chock full of unique items that echo the spirit of the Outer Banks. Continued on page 94

SWIMWEAR 2015:

A Symphony By Jill Bennett* Each morning as I’m getting ready for work, I turn on my favorite TV news and entertainment show. At the end of each year they do a short recap of that year’s events and trends, and it came as no surprise that they labeled last year as “the year of the rear.” In video, music, and fashion it was the year that was “All About That Bass.” But looking forward to swim fashion in 2015, it’s not just about the bottom…the top takes center stage too! Here’s my list of important “bass” and “treble” trends:

High Neck Halters: Take it up an octave and look slimmer in a high neck halter. The extra length gives height while the angle of the halter emphasizes your shoulders and slims your hips. There are some great high neck halters this season that double as sportswear!

Bustiers and Underwire Bras: Turn up the volume in an underwire bustier. They do exactly what the name suggests… boost and lift the bust line. Again, this draws attention to your top, while detracting from your hips for the appearance of a slimmer, longer figure.

Crop Tops and Mid-Kinis: Find a new beat with a top that is longer than a bra top, but shorter than a tankini. They hit somewhere in the midsection of the torso and are inspired by the athletic crossfit/bootcamp/yoga trend. They do double duty as sportswear when teamed with a zip jacket, rashguard, or leggings of the same fabric!

Flounce, Tiered, and Ruffled Tops: Shake, rattle, and roll in ruffles! With or without straps, these tops are sure to flatter. If you are less endowed on top, they give more volume. If you are more endowed they can actually minimize and camouflage. This season you can find both one-piece and two-piece styles with beautiful ruffle treatments.

Spin and turn, because with this season’s back treatments, you’ll be turning heads coming and going. The back is where the movement is!

Finish with a Cover-up:

Bottom Lines: Retro, Sporty, Cheeky, or Basic: All that bass is definitely covered! If you prefer

A cute cover-up is the perfect finale to your swimwear chorus. This season choose a kimono or tunic to top off your look. Or if your swimsuit top is doubling

Stroll down the sandy coast and collect shells that have been untouched for months or throw on a wetsuit and ride some waves on a paddleboard or surfboard. Spending an afternoon at the beach during the chillier months is something most people do not have the chance to experience, but one everyone should.

It’s a place where the only thing that rushes is the surf and the tallest high-rise is a lighthouse; where neglected dreams are stirred alive again and waves wash the worries from your mind. Embedded within its 100 miles of unblemished sand are sparkling waterways, world-class golf courses, wildlife sanctuaries and an array of stunning beach houses creatively furnished and designed solely to ease the demands of everyday life. Leave your stress behind at the state line and park your car at the shoreline. Activities are optional. Hunt for crabs. Hook a fish. Hike a dune. Slow down. Catch up. Kick back and take it easy or sit up and take notice. Welcome to the Outer Banks, a place that liberates the escapist in everyone. “There’s no other place like this in the world,” said Southern Shores Realty’s Robert Kissell, who has vacationed here since childhood. “The Outer Banks is undoubtedly the best family beach destination in America.” In addition to its natural beauty, these barrier islands have an abundance of privately-owned vacation beach houses that are a key part of the area’s appeal. Visitors can own or vacation in everything from a two-bedroom condo to a 20-bedroom home -- and every one has a

chemistry all its own. Often it’s the little things that make a house special. Other times, it’s the practical touches that make the difference. Owners, Realtors, property managers and marketing directors affiliated with the leading real estate firms on the Outer Banks continuously check the pulse of what’s trending. So every year brings a new list of features that enhance the “cool” factor of these hot properties, making vacation beach houses more like personal resorts. “I’m a fan of interesting floor plans and neat decorations that give the homes their ‘charm.’ Impressive amenities are a way for homes to stand out, but having homeowners who put their personal touches on things gives many of our homes that distinct factor that most cookie-cutter homes don’t have,” said Kissell. Owner ingenuity was responsible for some new “cool” features offered in beach houses managed by Joe Lamb, Jr. & Associates. “In Kitty Hawk, there are large stretches of beach that are no longer build-able because there isn’t enough land area to place a house. So, the people who own homes across the street have purchased these lots and built dunetop decks on them. One owner even added a OCTOBER 9-10 2015 | WHALEHEAD at HISTORIC COROLLA PARK grill and gazebo to the deck so you can grill hot KELLER WILLIAMS & MORE THAN A LITTLE dogs for lunch without even leaving the beach,” RUSTED ROOT • DIRTY DOZEN BRASS BAND THE NTH POWER • SISTER SPARROW & THE said Dan Hardy, president and general manager.

Carolina Designs Realty’s SoCo, #124 in Nags Head, built by SAGA Construction & Development recently earned an Outer Banks first, being named a Southern Living Showcase Home. It epitomizes a trend towards providing gathering areas for guests with the creation of backyard expansions. While pools have become standard, additional seating areas, cabanas and bars have become increasingly popular for vacationers.

all you need to do is enjoy yourself,” said Mike Harrington, CEO of Resort Realty. “We also offer room service. Order beverages and food and we will deliver it to your home or to the cabana. We’re trying to create a luxury-resort feel in a vacation rental and make it as effortless and relaxing as possible for our guests.” The homes also have a top-floor living area with accordion-style doors that open to a sheltered lanai so vacationers can experience floor-to-ceiling unencumbered views of the beach and ocean. Balancing service, style and spirited fun is a common theme that’s found in all Outer Banks’ dream homes. Their modern comforts and amenities combine to deliver serenity with an edge, which is appealing to those who wish to retreat and rejuvenate in style. These beach houses indulge owners and guests with saunas, heated swimming pools, swim-up cabanas, wine chillers, private suites, decked-out recreational rooms, massive patio fire pits, bowling lanes, man caves, fountains, 12-person hot tubs and so much more. “One home in Sea Scape has elevations about 80-feet above sea level and the owner has built a roof-top deck with a wet bar. The views from up there are phenomenal! We also have a program with Sea Scape Golf Links that allows tenants who rent a beach house on the golf course to get four rounds of golf each week free if the home’s owners are a member of the club. It’s a nice feature that’s been very popular,” Hardy said. “They are in high demand and, frankly, there aren’t that many in inventory. We’ve found that pet-friendly homes tend to have about 20% more weeks rented throughout the year,” said Barry Breit, sales manager with Carolina Designs. “One of the things we’re also seeing are owners retrofitting their homes to expand the backyard pool, bar and cabana areas. In the early 2000s, people would put in a pool and install a fence around it. Now, they’re moving

those fence lines close to their property lines and creating grassy areas.” Breit said homeowners are clearing the sand and seeding or laying sod and installing irrigation so they can transform their yards into an oasis with more places for seating, dining and cooking around the pool. It also becomes an extended gathering place where guests can indulge in a game of badminton, volleyball, horseshoes or soccer. “This can be a relatively inexpensive retrofit for anyone buying a house that’s in the rental program and wanting to take it up a notch without a huge expense,” Breit said. Although beach houses are filled with overthe-top amenities, their owners may pamper

vacationers even more with gift baskets, restaurant gift cards, golf course and YMCA membership privileges and other thank-you’s that let guests know they are appreciated and valued. In addition to more and better amenities, technology also has influenced the vacation home market. Cars have been replaced by search engines as vacationers swap on-site inspections for Web site research. “Visitors can now preview the beach houses on the Internet before committing to rent them,” Kissell said. “We strongly recommend that all of our homeowners invest in digital floor plans. This allows website visitors to go room-by-room and angle-by-angle throughout the homes in just minutes.” Updated company websites are crucial today because people are shopping every day from their desk tops for escape routes to accommodate a weekend or holiday getaway. Consequently, the Outer Banks has become a four-season destination. The stunning beauty and sunny beaches of North Carolina’s Outer Banks are gentle reminders that you shouldn’t get so caught up earning a living that you forget how to live.

n area is defined more than just its geographic boundaries. There are people, places and things within those dotted lines on a map that help shape the idea of that space. Some may be obvious, like monuments or museums, a beach or mountains. Others, still, are less obvious, like finding a perfect place to relax with a good meal and a good glass of wine as the sun sets. The Outer Banks are defined in many ways, but for me, I think of the food and foodways, both historic and contemporary, that have brought me to these barrier islands for the past quarter-century and keep brining me back. Each and every one of my trips to the Outer Banks is filled with visiting familiar chefs at tried-and-true restaurants, and discovering new and exciting places to dine. But one thing is consistent – the number of chef-driven restaurants on this special strip of land is phenomenal, and so many are honoring the food and foodways of the Outer Banks with exciting preparations utilizing fresh, local

foods from land and from sea.

KEEPING IT LOCAL One thing to keep in mind when looking for delicious dishes with the freshest ingredients is that agriculture and aquaculture are highly seasonal. That means that you can get a tomato in January, but it’s not locally grown, unless it came from a greenhouse. One thing that makes keeping it local so special, to me, is that not everything is available at all times, and when a certain ingredient is in season, like that tomato, it is richly red, plump and juicy; you can practically taste the fertile northeastern North Carolina soil from where it grew. That doesn’t mean that you can’t get good food out of season, but when you are able, you will be rewarded. The farmland just across the Currituck Sound from the Outer Banks grows an amazing abundance of produce: asparagus, beets, berries, butterbeans, melons, greens, herbs and more – including tomatoes.


Take a little time to check out resources, like the North Carolina Department of Agriculture and Consumer Service (www.ncfarmfresh.com) to see what is in market – and likely on chef’s menus – when you dine out. Just like food that grows on the land, food that grows in the sea is also very seasonal. From the waters of the North Carolina Atlantic coast and the waterways leading into the ocean come a wide abundance of seafood. In the spring and summer it may be soft shell crabs. Come summertime shrimp, mackerel and other finfish and shellfish join the offerings. With fall, flounder is a true delicacy, and winter is a great time for sea trout and succulent oysters. The Outer Banks Catch program was established in June 2010. Membership in the group includes fishermen (many of whom are multi-generational watermen), seafood markets and grocers, community members, and restaurants. The group works in tandem to get Outer Banks-caught finfish and shellfish from the sea to serving platters. Many restaurants in the region serve approved Outer Banks Catch seafood; a platter with the initiative’s name and stylized fish logo can be found near the eatery’s entrance to identify themselves as a member. Knowledgeable waitstaff can guide diners through what is in season, and the best preparation methods. Do some due-diligence before dining out and visit the Outer Banks Catch website (www. outerbankscatch.com) to see what is literally jumping

Many restaurants here pride themselves on serving up a good, hearty breakfast, and this is where the region’s true Southern roots show. Look for pancake houses that offer hot-from-the griddle flapjacks with a myriad of toppings. Along side, look for plates of bacon, sausage or country ham. There are omelets made with farm fresh eggs and vegetables, artisan muffins and other baked goods and, for brunch, places that try to out do the next with bubbly mimosas and bloody mary bars with enough ingredients for topping the tomato tonic to feed an army. Some eateries pay homage to the seafoodcentric community with fried fish, oysters and clam fritters at breakfast too – and don’t forget the North Carolina shrimp atop a bowl of hot, buttery grits.

dining eateries. Some are relatively new on the scene, while others have been feeding families of visitors for generations. Some seafood is done Old School style, crispy fried, while others are crafted with such techniques such as sous-vide. Some restaurants cater to the surfing community, with Baja-inspired dishes of fresh catch and high quality beef and pork tucked in tortillas with seasonal vegetables and housemade salsa adorning the dishes. Here, look for tropical drinks and buckets of cold beer to temper the spicy heat. Still others feature Southern cuisine, like barbecue, fried chicken, roasts, and homestyle vegetables. Some you pull up a chair at a wooden bar, and others you sit down at a crisp white linen topped table. One item you can’t find on the menu are the stunning views of the water at many eateries, whether the Atlantic Ocean or Currituck Sound; there are numerous offerings that allow diners to gaze out from the dining room, or in some cases, a patio. You can even have a true taste of the Outer Banks with an effortless patio party for family and friends, perhaps at that beach cottage you are renting, by ordering up an assortment of dishes from a variety of restaurants, like steamed seafood, barbecue, and the like, and have an effortless patio party with local beer and wine.

he Outer Banks of North Carolina provides visitors with an amazing array of experiences. In fact, there are enough unique and memorable experiences to bring over seven million visitors to the region each year. While the beaches are the headlining act of our amazing area, three of my favorite

accompaniments to a visit in the Outer Banks are enjoying the local seafood along with local wine and craft beer. Let’s be honest, it just isn’t a vacation without some amazing food and drink!

On the Outer Banks, the “fresh catch of the day” is not just a sales technique on menus. Your incredible dinner may have been in the ocean that very morning—it just doesn’t get much fresher. Now that we are set on the food side, we definitely need something to wash down all that great seafood. Nothing goes better with great local seafood than local

Much has changed since original settler Jacob Wright shipwrecked on the shores of Duck, but the family still honors the farming tradition established hundreds of years ago. Sanctuary Vineyards is the product of centuries of farming experience and a dedication to a dream-producing world-class wine in Currituck County.

bitterness of India Pale Ales, there is a beer for every drinker’s preference. The Outer Banks has a number of amazing crafter brewers that are on the leading edge of this wave of craft beer. The Weeping Radish in Grandy, NC is the oldest microbrewery in North Carolina being founded in 1986 by Uli Bennowitz. Uli was instrumental in getting legislation passed which allowed for breweries and brewpubs to sell their product directly to the public, paving the way for the rich beer culture we enjoy in NC. The Weeping Radish was founded upon traditional German brewing and continues that tradition today. Their flagship beers Coralla Gold, OBX Fest and Black Radish are traditional German lagers bringing a bit of the old country to our Outer Banks beer scene.

Entertainment From the best happy hours to fun beachside activities, the Outer Banks provides entertainment for vacationers of all ages

ON THE BEACH

AWARD WINNING

At the OBX Fishing Pier Great Food • Breakfast • Lunch • Dinner Over 20 Draft Beer Selections Largest On the Beach

T

here’s always something to do on the Outer Banks, no matter what your age, the time of day or weather. When the day is winding down and it’s time to leave the beach, the evening activities are just getting started. If you feel like making some memories, scout out a local mini-golf course and play a game or two through pirate ships and waterfalls. Go-karts abound for the adrenaline junkies, and family-friendly evening outdoor concerts are a great way to spend the early hours. For nostalgia’s sake, rent a few beach cruisers and stroll with your family through the quaint streets of the Outer Banks or down the newly renovated Duck boardwalk. The more adventurous vacationer can embark on a sunset cruise. Several boat operators offer incredibly scenic trips on the sound in the early evenings, which provide some of the most memorable experiences an Outer Banks vacation can offer. Get a true taste of the Outer Banks while enjoying a wine tasting at one of the many wineries. For night owls young and old, a nice variety of local restaurants transform into mini-nightclubs. From comedy clubs to tiki bars to outdoor shows, there are plenty of places for late-night partying too! With so many nightlife activities, you’ll hardly be able to wait until the sun sets and the day nears its end.

Celebrating 15 Years!!

It all began with three partners and their idea of starting a one-of-a-kind seafood buffet business. One of the partners, my husband Jerry Dowless, decided to buy out the business in May of 2003. Unfortunately, Jerry passed away in August of that same year, leaving me and my three children with a tough decision. We are so glad we made the choice to carry on our dreams because, today, we can proudly celebrate being in business for 15 fun and successful years. Jimmy’s offers the usual seafood fare, but with an emphasis on a Caribbean twist, giving our food choices diverse flavors from all over the world. When it comes to our buffet, we have high hopes you will not be disappointed with all that is offered. Undoubtedly you will find unique seafood options as well as traditional Southern food and made-to-order desserts! In addition to our tasty food, our welcoming and down-to-earth staff will certainly make you feel at home when dining at Jimmy’s Seafood Buffet. After being in business for 15 years now, we are proud to be known as the “Vacation Destination” by people from all over.
