With summer winding down…you can surely snag some deals on a beachside bungalow to make the most of the two months of sunshine and hot weather left. Unsure of where to start? I posted an article earlier this year about the best beaches, but there are a few I left out…
- Holden Beach

- Ocracoke Beach
Flickr / Ole Bendik Kvisberg Ocracoke is a charming beach village with 16 miles of undeveloped coastline.
- Kure Beach
Flickr / Nan-Cheng Tsai Kure Beach is NC’s oldest fishing pier. It is perfect for a laid back family vacation and offers an aquarium and beachfront parks.
- Nags Head

- Coquina Beach
Flickr / John Buie Coquina is located off the Cape Hatteras National Seashore near the Wright Brothers National Memorial. On this laid back beach you can enjoy miles of waves and peaceful shoreline.
- Atlantic Beach

- Duck
Flickr / annie Duck is quaint, charming town in the Northern Outer Banks…but this still doesn’t stop the amount of visitors that come flooding in each summer to get a slice of the seaside charm. A late August vacation is the perfect time to skip the crowds but embrace what Duck is really all about.
- Surf City

- Rodanthe

- Frisco
