Enjoy an escape from the bustling central Outer Banks beach towns and plan a quiet respite in the scenic community of Manteo with a stay at the Scarborough Inn. Featuring just 14 rooms that are beautifully appointed with antiques and period furnishings, this charming and quiet inn may be adjacent to US Highway 64, but it feels like it’s miles away from the rest of the world, and – (with the exception of the modern amenities) - from another, slower-paced time in local history.

The hotel is just minutes away from the Nags Head beaches as well as the miles of undeveloped Cape Hatteras National Seashore coastline, and is also nicely close to historic Downtown Manteo, where a wealth of shops, cafes, restaurants, art galleries, and antique stores can all be found. The rooms are nicely accommodating, with free Wi-Fi, TVs with cable service, microwaves, mini-fridges and coffee makers, and complimentary continental breakfast is served daily in the main lobby area. After long days of exploring favorite Outer Banks sites like the North Carolina Aquarium and the Roanoke Island Festival Park, followed by quiet nights in a charming B&B-style setting, visitors will fall in love with life on the outskirts of the coast at the Scarborough Inn.

The 7 Best Beach & Fishing Coolers 2024

The 7 Best Beach & Fishing Coolers 2024

Nothing beats an ice-cold beverage while relaxing on the beach. Nothing is worse than reaching for an icy drink and finding your cans swimming. Coolers are essential for family days on the sand. A good modern cooler will keep food and drinks fresh for days. In addition to beverages, fishermen rely coolers to keep bait fresh, and hopefully the catch of the day. Walk onto any beach or pier in North or South Carolina and you’ll see a plethora of cooler models and sizes. Cooler technology has advanced rapidly in modern years. Top-end hard-sided coolers can keep ice frozen for a week. Soft coolers are easier for one person to carry onto a beach, but can still keep food cool for days. Cooler materials and price points vary wildly, so we put together this guide with our recommendations for your coastal vacation.
