Outer Banks Towns: Kill Devil Hills
Kill Devil Hills, home of the Wright Brothers Memorial, has easily-accessed beaches with parking, fishing, crabbing, mini golf, restaurants, night life, fine dining, shopping and movies.
Kill Devil Hills History
The oldest township in the Outer Banks, Kill Devil Hills was established in 1952. High sand dunes that stretched from the Albemarle Sound to the Atlantic Ocean once dotted the landscape. On the top of one of those dunes in 1903, the Wright Brothers made history when they achieved the first successful airplane flight. The spot is now home to the Wright Brothers Memorial.
