We've rounded up some of the top activities—especially guest favorites that come with special discounts when you stay with Seaside Vacations—as well as a complete list of adventures categorized by air, water, and land.
The Outer Banks is home to many different types of marine wildlife and many different types of jellyfish, but jellyfish are found all over the world, in both the deep ocean and in shallow waters close to the surface. They are believed to have existed for millions of years and predate even the dinosaurs, let alone us humans enjoying our vacations here on the Outer Banks!
"Jingle in July: Bundle Up for Seniors" is a community-wide collection drive across the Outer Banks to gather new blankets and grip socks in July for local seniors, with all items wrapped and delivered during the holiday season.
Here on the Outer Banks, summer conditions last far longer than just June, July and August meaning you still have plenty of time to schedule your Outer Banks vacation!
