Seaside Vacations

As Surfline points out, the Outer Banks offers arguably the best surf on the East Coast.

Year after year the shores of the Outer Banks offer consistent great swell and premier surf conditions.   A major reason the OBX beaches offer such excellent surf is because of the way the shoreline is situated against the ocean.  The area’s narrow continental shelf allows for swells to hit many areas of the coastline unaffected by outside forces, and because the barrier islands wrap in an almost horseshoe fashion, swells from a variety of directions can create great waves. 

The ideal local of the Outer Banks allows low pressures, Nor’ Easters, and significant tropical systems to send swell unimpeded towards the exposed coastline.   When wind conditions cooperate, these ideal environmental forces can  create some of the best waves the east coast has to offer. 

Surfers also have the chance to surf a variety of different surf spots with relatively low crowds.  It is frustrating for every surfer to pull up to a favorite spot to discover there are a hundred other people that have the same favorite spot.  On the Outer Banks, if you pull up to a spot that is overcrowded, a desolate surf spot is just a short drive away. 

Come discover for yourself why the Outer Banks is arguably the best surf on the east coast.  Great vacation rentals available year round with easy access to gorgeous waves.
