Life Saving Stations of the Outer Banks
A new search aid is now available on the Outer Banks History Center’s “finding aids” page. This new section is titled Lifesaving Stations of the Outer Banks Collection, 1874-1988.

Dogs on the Outer Banks
Dogs are a part of the family, and the four-legged family members love vacation too. The Outer Banks is very dog-friendly, but it’s worth it to plan ahead.
If you plan to bring your dog to the Outer Banks this summer, here are some tips to make your travels easier:
- Do be up to date with your dogs vaccinations
- Make sure your dog is a nonaggressive dog that will get along with people and other dogs
- This one is a no-brainer: Make sure your dog is housebroken!
- No off-limit chewing- If you have a dog that is teething or loves to chew, pack some of your pup’s toys with you
- Never leave your pet unattended
- Pick up after your pooch
- Teach your pup basic commands
By taking these precautionary measures before and during your vacation, it will make your dog-friendly vacation much more enjoyable and stress free.
