If you are looking for a unique and memorable Valentine’s Day celebration, the Outer Banks is the best place to be! From romantic beach strolls to breathtaking drives along the coast, you will find love in the air everywhere you go!

What to do on Valentine’s Day in the OBX?

Downtown Historic Manteo

Recently voted as one of the top ten most romantic towns in NC, Downtown Historic Manteo is the perfect place to spend the day with your valentine. This quaint town is full of local shops, restaurants and businesses with unique offerings to discover.

After spending some time in town, take a quick drive to Jockey’s Ridge State Parkwhere you can walk the largest sand dune on the East Coast!

Outer Banks Scenic Byway

To fully experience all that the Outer Banks has to offer, take a drive down the Outer Banks Scenic Byway. Along the way you’ll see wildlife refuge, famous surf spots and lots of sand dunes.

Keep a lookout for the beach home featured in the movie Nights in Rodanthe, based on the bestselling romance novel by author Nicholas Sparks, or stop to explore Cape Hatteras Lighthouse, the tallest lighthouse in the country.

Visit Equine Adventures or Hatteras Island Horseback Riding to finish off the day with a romantic horseback ride along the beach at sunset.
