Each year, visitors flock to the Outer Banks of North Carolina to escape city life, reconnect with family and friends, and enjoy the sea and salt air. The Outer Banks is made up of 200 miles of coastline, with ambiance and activities for a variety of ages and interests. Mostly, visitors travel for week-long vacations in privately-owned rental homes. The OBX does offer hotels and motels, from small “mom and pop” style to chain hotels like Marriott, Hilton, Hampton Inn, Comfort Inn, and Holiday Inn.
