Welcome to Ocracoke Island!

One of the barrier islands of the southernmost Outer Banks, Ocracoke Island promises guests true tranquility and isolation from all the hustle and bustle of city life. Ocracoke Island can only be reached by private plane, private boat or one of three ferries. Other than the village of Ocracoke and a few other areas such as the campground, a pony pen and a small runway, the entire island is part of the Cape Hatteras National Seashore. You’ll find navigating the island easy, as one two-lane road all the way from the village at the southern end to the ferry dock at the northern tip of the island. The wealth of indigenous wildlife and maritime forest as well as history makes Ocracoke such a treasure among beaches.

Is it any wonder that many of our visitors dream of owning a vacation home here? Miles of private, uncrowded beaches and unspoiled dunes and landscape surround a quaint village. Visitors flock to the Ocracoke to enjoy world-class sportfishing, boating, kayaking, windsurfing and the Outer Banks is one of the top three destinations in the world for shipwreck scuba diving.
