Here’s a few more photos from my Road Trip to the Cape Hatteras National Seashore, North Carolina.
Along the National Seashore
The Outer Banks are a series of barrier islands, a very fragile environment. Note the proximity of the two beachfront houses to the surf. Beach erosion has moved more than 40 feet of beach.

I’m down here near Ocean Isle beach and always wanted to go to the Outer Banks but never have. Good pictures! Maybe one day I can go see the area! Thanks for sharing!

What lovely photos! For years, I wondered why people lived on the hurricane-prone Outer Banks. Then I visited, and discovered the why! You captured a bit of that “why” here. Thanks!

People live there because they enjoy the quiet life of the Outer Banks. Or they were born and raised there and it’s home. I’ve frequently fantasized moving there, but it’s a long jump from the suburbs of Cincinnati.
