Here’s one from the Way Back Machine. 1946 in Nags Head. Amazing. Classic Outer Banks pictures are great.

Sure, the 2010 OBX is different than the 1946 OBX, more businesses, more houses, more visitors. But as much as things are different, at the core, nothing has changed.

The beaches are still beautiful (and empty most of the year), the Atlantic is still available as our playground, the history hasn’t lost any of it’s charm, there’s an abundance of nature ready for exploration…and most importantly, the OBX is still a favorite spot for vacationers to enjoy a slower pace of life and connect with friends and family.

Even if it is only once a year for a quick week, the Outer Banks can still refresh your spirit the same way it did for this lovely couple in 1946.
