Outer Banks: Carova Beach Park
Carova Beach Park is open for all to enjoy. Carova is the northern-most beach on the Outer Banks; it is also known as the “4-wheel drive area” because you need a 4-wheel drive vehicle to access the beach. This is also the area where the majority of the Outer Banks’ wild horses roam freely.
The park was completed ahead of schedule in early September.
The park is accessible by foot, truck, or boat, and it offers great facilities for a variety of activities.
· Great area to enjoy the beautiful OBX weather and a casual stroll with loved ones and your four-legged friends
· Ideal location for fishing and crabbing
· Professional size volley ball court
· Horseshoe pits
· Four picnic shelters and grills
· The only public restrooms in the 4 x 4 area.
The design of the park allows for expansion, and a playground has been discussed as a future addition.
Rain or shine, Carova Beach Park is a great place to spend time in the 4 x 4 area.
