Oregon Inlet is one of the most dynamic waterways on the East Coast, so it is fitting that the Oregon Inlet Fishing Center is the home of the coast’s largest, most modern fishing fleet. Situated on the northwest corner of the inlet overlooking the Herbert C. Bonner Bridge, the fishing center offers a full service marina and some of the best inshore and offshore charter fishing opportunities on the Outer Banks --- a vast improvement from its humble beginnings in 1953 when a bulkhead and small bait shop were first built at the site.
Located eight miles south of Whalebone Junction off N.C. 12 on the north end of Cape Hatteras National Seashore, the fishing center includes a well-stocked store with ice, fishing and camping supplies, clothing, boating equipment, and food and beverages. The National Park Service maintains a boat launch behind the center, and there is plenty of parking for vehicles and trailers. Even for those who don't fish, there is plenty to appreciate in the spectacular location. On a good fishing day, it's fun to watch all the charter vessels come back through the inlet at about 4 p.m ,and then see the happy fishermen offload their catch at the dock.

This year, the Duck Jazz Festival proudly reaches its 16th anniversary, and with it, we unveil our artistic vision:“Duck Grooves: The Sound of Jazz,” is an electrifying celebration of jazz’s dynamic, ever-evolving nature, set against the stunning backdrop of the Currituck Sound. It’s a fusion of past, present, and future, where the timeless traditions of jazz intersect with the vibrancy of new, innovative sounds. Just as the sound of jazz flows and adapts, so too does the landscape of Duck where the rhythm of the music harmonizes with the natural beauty of the water and the surrounding environment.
Bodie Island tends to cause a lot of confusion, for both the pronunciation of its name as well as its precise location. This small strip of the Outer Banks doesn't get a lot of attention, and most North Carolina visitors simply pass through the area on their way to or from the Hatteras and Ocracoke Island resort towns, or make a quick stop for an up-close-and-personal view of the Bodie Island Lighthouse.
