Ocracoke Campground

Ocracoke Island along is so beautiful. Then you add that view of the night sky from the campground…no words describes the beauty of it.

amazing ...

We have been camping for up to 2-weeks at Ocracoke for many years. Plan for variable weather - wind, sun and rain. Great place to bike, both int he campground and on the path to town and into town. Bring some sort of sun shade for the beach. If you can't stand cold water showers, consider bringing a sun shower.

I had great time until the wind was terrible and it broke the tent so we had to leave earlier than expected. But other than that it was good

Greatest place on the planet. So much fun

This is second time we opted to camp next a beach. Campsite is very well maintained and cleaned 3 times a day. Great place to stay

I come to Ocracoke almost annually, usually only for a few nights. This year, I opted to stay almost a week and have no regrets. I come for the minimalist amenities amongst one of the most beautiful places on earth. The yellow flies, mosquitoes and sometimes relentless wind are just further affirmation that this planet is in charge and we are just along for the ride. Tents have been lost and friendships tested on this island, but I am a forever fan.

Ocracoke campground is one of our favorite camping spots. Sleeping under the stars, look up in the middle of the night and you'll see milky way; surrounded by fire flies, quietly blinking in the bushes; hearing the ocean waves crashing in your sleep and wake up and walk 5 minutes to watch every gorgeous sun rise on the empty beach. It's such a wonderful experience every year. Set your tent towards the winds and enjoy the breeze coming through your tent, it's the best way to connect yourself with nature and everything wonderful at Ocracoke. Thank you camp host and rangers for keeping the campsite so clean and welcoming to us all. Oh and don't forget to join the Tuesday morning Bird walk, you'll love it.

We love Ocracoke. 10 years of visiting. But they di need to repair the picnic tables. Ours was full of holes on site D9

Overall we had a wonderful time camping at Ocracoke. The weather was great, with mostly ocean breezes and sunny days. There was one epic rainstorm but it was beautiful in its own way. I withheld a star in my rating for two reasons. First is the noise from camper’s generators after the 10 PM curfew. I’d prefer no generators at all but respect the compromise and wish that others would too. I think most campers prefer to fall asleep to the sound of the ocean, not an industrial racket. Second is the mess that some campers leave in the showers. Gobs of hair, toilet paper and other personal items. Ocracoke is a beautiful place that deserves better.
