Elizabethan Gardens

“An hour north this is definitely worth a stop. You can visit the STAR center and see turtles being rehabilitated. Watch otters swim, pet manta rays, swim with sharks and more.”

“Enjoy the newly remodeled visitor center and the interactive activities and exhibits on aviation, historic preservation, and STEAM-based activities (science, technology, engineering, arts and math) provided by local and regional partners. Once inside the newly renovated visitor center, visitors will embark on a journey through the lives of Orville and Wilbur Wright, exploring their characters, diving into problems they solved and the methods they used that ultimately led to their first flight on December 17, 1903. Inside the Flight Room, visitors will once again be able to view the reproduction 1903 Wright Flyer - the flyer that made history during the first flight - along with a brand new 16-screen video wall!”

“Our absolute FAVORITE thing to do in Outer Banks, besides relaxing on the beach. A broadway style show, performed in an open amphitheater, this mesmerizing piece of Outer Banks tradition re-enacts the first English settlers to North America; including their expedition with Sir Walter Raleigh, establishing the colony, their relationship with the local Indians, and the hardships that ensued. ”

“Remember in your American History class the lost city of Roanoke? Well its here! So many fun things to do here. The botanical gardens, grounds tours. Look up online when you stay for event, reservations, and pricing. Magical Place~”

“We dine in this restaurant once every year, great food and a beautiful view of the sound”
