North Carolina's Outer Banks and coastal areas are replete with state and national parks, reserves and other recreational facilities. Hunting, fishing, bird watching, boating, camping, hiking, kayaking, biking, and many other activities can be enjoyed in the many thousands of acres of these protected land and water areas. Historical and cultural sites, museums and educational displays dot the coast as well. Below is but a partial listing, with each location linked to an "official" web site.
