Wonderful quaint village and beautiful beaches. Eduardo’s taco food truck is a must! Ocracoke Island is always windy so be prepared. Dry camping but the Village grocery is only 3 mi away.

Not for the faint of heart getting there. We had a 3 hour wait for the ferry plus the ride over. The campsites were clean and spacious.
